What's the relevant difference, that neutrons have mass? If one can make squeezed light, why aren't squeezed neutrons possible in too, at least in principle?

- millstone 6y agoNeutrons are fermions, and are subject to the Pauli Exclusion Principle. Photons are bosons, and so are not. Composite fermion systems may act as bosons and be "squeezed." Bose-Einstein condensates are an example of this.
- c1ccccc1 6y agoOkay, that makes sense. (I really should have remembered that.) Thank you!
