At this point they’re stacked in shells like seated concertgoers in a sold out arena and have nowhere to go if hit, the researchers explained. They’re so packed, that the particles are no longer able to interact with light. Light that is sent in is Pauli blocked, and will simply pass straight through.

I can’t really comment on the article if I don’t understand a word it said.........Not even staying in a Holiday Inn Express last night helped.

prevent information loss in quantum computers

If it could be used to locate recoverable fossil fuels they'd never be allowed to set foot in a physics lab again. Funding these days requires either a tie in to quantum computing or global warming, else forget it.

Basically, if you get an atom cold enough so that it does not vibrate, it becomes invisible because light will not bounce off it..................

as they are squeezed, does the temp rise and require even more cooling

"I know."

Well, the article talks about clouds, and the Shadow has the "power to cloud men's minds".

The gases that xiden squeezes are invisible, but they make up for it in decibels.

So no shadow would lie behind it, which is weird too.
