Description
Leon Kleebank and six co-workers saw scale laws at work in a gas of light bits. They tested a long held claim from physics. Near a phase shift, scores blow up by laws that sort states of matter into groups. Plain quantum gases sit in a group called the XY model class. Claims say a pure Bose gas should form its own group, but no test had yet shown its marks. The team used a flat gas of photons in a tiny pit.
The photons barely touch each other. They gain heat through touch with a pool of molecules. Gauges of space links near the shift gave a length score of near 0.52. That score fits the Bose gas claim, not the XY class. The 2026 find proves in a real test a scale class first claimed decades ago.
