A shot in the arm for fractional charge
Charles L. Kane1 & Matthew P. A. Fisher2
The theory of the fractional quantum Hall effect implies the existence of quasiparticles, collective electron states that have fractional charge. New experiments provide a direct measurement of the charge of these strange states.
