ну, или Bosenova:
The worry this time is about Bose Einstein Condensates, lumps of matter so cold that their constituents occupy the lowest possible quantum state.
Physicists have been fiddling with BECs since the early 1990s and have become quite good at manipulating them with magnetic fields.
One thing they’ve found is that it is possible to switch the force between atoms in certain kinds of BECs from positive to negative and back using a magnetic field, a phenomenon known as a Feschbach resonance.
But get this: in 2001, Elizabeth Donley and buddies at JILA in Boulder, Colorado, caused a BEC to explode by switching the forces like. These explosions have since become known as Bose supernovas.
да, я люблю коллекционировать страхи, почему бы и нет.
