Observing one-dimensional anyons: Exotic quasiparticles in the coldest corners of the universe

Scientists have observed anyons — quasiparticles that differ from the familiar fermions and bosons — in a one-dimensional quantum system for the first time. The results may contribute to a better understanding of quantum matter and its potential applications.
