In a remarkable development, researchers have successfully turned light into a supersolid for the first time, paving the way for new insights into the unusual quantum states of matter.
This achievement marks a significant milestone in the field of condensed matter physics.
Dimitrios Trypogeorgos from Italy’s National Research Council (CNR) reportedly said, “We actually made light into a solid. That’s pretty awesome.”



This is absolutely fascinating...
 
Fascinating stuff! I will have to look into exactly how they are making this happen. Sounds really bizarre!

I bet you there will be some interesting technological applications for this eventually.
