Lene Hau waves think speed light Physics is about questioning, studying, probing nature. You probe, and, if you're lucky, you get strange clues. Lene Hau you strange physics nature To get high data transfer rates in communicating information, you would love to use optical fibers. The problem is that light is extremely hard to manipulate. So we make a perfect copy of the information carried by the light. We transfer it to matter - the condensate. Lene Hau you light matter love To me, what makes physics physics is that experiment is intimately connected to theory. It's one whole.
