For the first time, a team of physicists has managed to measure the geometric 'form' of an individual electron as it moved through a solid. Something that will allow to study the quantum behavior of matter in an entirely new way. Until now, scientists knew how to measure the energies and velocities of electrons inside crystalline materials, but the quantum geometry of those systems could only be inferred theoretically and often not even that.

Like it or not, our understanding of quantum mechanics just explores the tip of the iceberg. This branch of physics is dedicated to studying the smallest level of the universe; a subatomic scale so tiny that it receives an almost esoteric name: the ‘Quantum Kingdom’. The first evidence that this ‘kingdom’ is governed [...]
