Is it possible to transmit across different states of matter?

If a signal can be transmitted using a plasma, could a signal be transmitted through a Bose-einstein condensate?

yes

Sound waves and related surface waves can transmit signals across most states of matter. I don’t know whether they can transmit information across superfluids (checks web – yes, not only does sound cross superfluids, you also get second sound, third sound and fourth sound).

Sound can be transmitted through a BEC. A signal transmitted by sound through a plasma would largely reflect at the surface between a plasma and BEC, but some sound would continue to transmit information through the BEC.

might be said any time a radio signal goes from the aether to an antenna, and the opposite, that this is what’s happening, transduction I guess?, antennas being a transducer.

but this’d be to start an argument about if there is an aether, and if it’s in any way a state of matter.
