Heidelberg physicists just united two opposing quantum theories

A new theory developed by physicists at Heidelberg University brings together two long competing ideas in quantum physics, offering a unified explanation for how an unusual particle behaves inside a crowded quantum environment. The work connects two seemingly opposite descriptions of a single impurity moving through or remaining nearly motionless within a large collection of fermions, a system known as a Fermi sea.
