Fermions do not travel together, theory proved

Scientists have demonstrated that fermions, particles predicted by quantum mechanics to avoid close proximity, indeed exhibit an 'anti-bunching' effect, repelling each other due to quantum interferences. This finding enables the detection of correlations between atoms and advances our understanding of matter at the quantum scale.
