First Experimental Evidence Published for Formation of Fermion Quadrupling

The central principle of superconductivity is that electrons form pairs. But can they also condense into foursomes- Recent findings have suggested they can, and a physicist at KTH Royal Institute of Technology today published the first experimental evidence of this quadrupling effect and the mechanism by which this state of matter occurs.
