Limiting quantum particles to move in one, two, or three dimensions has led to the observation of many striking phenomena. A prime example is the quantization of the Hall conductance measured in 2D ...

Physicists propose a new vantage point to observe quantum fractionalization. Rice University physicists Matthew Foster and Seth Davis want to view a vexing quantum puzzle from an entirely new ...
