Ultracold test produces long-sought quantum mix
In the bizarre and rule-bound world of quantum physics, every tiny spec of matter has something called "spin"-an intrinsic trait like eye color-that cannot be changed and which dictates, very specifically, what other bits of matter the spec can share quantum space with.   view more (2005-12-23)
