Looks a bit like a virus.

Seems to be the only website that has published that image, so I assume it’s just an “artist’s impression”.
Hmmmmm…
Electron reveals itself.
what, all one of them
¿
right
Was in google news I swear.
Like Bubble, I can’t locate any other articles.

Plenty of articles from January 2025, search “electron Ricarrdo Comin MIT” or “Comin Photon Scattering Lab – MIT” or such.

Measurements of the quantum geometric tensor in solids

Abstract
Understanding the geometric properties of quantum states and their implications in fundamental physical phenomena is a core aspect of contemporary physics. The quantum geometric tensor (QGT) is a central physical object in this regard, encoding complete information about the geometry of the quantum state. The imaginary part of the QGT is the well-known Berry curvature, which plays an integral role in the topological magnetoelectric and optoelectronic phenomena. The real part of the QGT is the quantum metric, whose importance has come to prominence recently, giving rise to a new set of quantum geometric phenomena such as anomalous Landau levels, flat band superfluidity, excitonic Lamb shifts and nonlinear Hall effect. Despite the central importance of the QGT, its experimental measurements have been restricted only to artificial two-level systems. Here, we develop a framework to measure the QGT in crystalline solids using polarization-, spin- and angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. Using this framework, we demonstrate the effective reconstruction of the QGT in the kagome metal CoSn, which hosts topological flat bands. Establishing this momentum- and energy-resolved spectroscopic probe of the QGT is poised to significantly advance our understanding of quantum geometric responses in a wide range of crystalline systems.

Ok. I think they could have worded it in a better way.
