Electron family creates previously unknown state of matter

Scientists demonstrated a completely novel state of matter in a metal. It is created by the combination of four electrons - until now, only electron pairs were known. This discovery could lead to a new type of superconductivity, an entirely new research direction, and revolutionary technologies such as quantum sensors.
