After more than 40 years of intense research, experimental physicists still seek to explore the rich behavior of electrons confined to a two-dimensional crystalline structure exposed to large magnetic fields. Now scientists have developed a new experimental method to simulate these systems using a crystal made of neutral atoms and laser light. In such artificial quantum matter, the atoms could be exposed to a uniform effective magnetic field several thousand times stronger than in typical condensed matter systems.![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/blogger_img_proxy/AEn0k_uhe2SVLt5P-tmTiS2mXoOyNEprXafwqKxnOUxMe0EenPC8Lb2dyteN0JAJIdqczNBVmWRaMuimfunAl8yrbKC-mmslG0p2CuaH68gEIbS6T7LnApEusMzmVvKTwyMUIysCg7btai9jUcqaLqfWP4OJldzKFw=s0-d)
