UM-Bot Posted September 27, 2013 #1 Share Posted September 27, 2013 Physicists have been able to create a form of 'light-matter' reminiscent of the lightsabers in Star Wars. The research focuses on the way in which light particles known as photons, which possess no detectable mass, interact with one another. Photons are traditionally unable to stick together so that if two lasers beams were to collide for instance they would simply pass through one another.

RedDusk Posted September 28, 2013 #3 Share Posted September 28, 2013 So much yes, yet so much disappointment. All my childhood memories of playing Star Wars on the playground are coming back x.x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chooky88 Posted September 29, 2013 #5 Share Posted September 29, 2013 Baby steps. Kudos for trying. The problem with Lasers is they go on 'forever'. I'm sure there will be applications for this technology we haven't dreamed of :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
