00:00Laser optical traps freeze potassium atoms to absolute zero in a high vacuum chamber.
00:07This extreme experiment reaches temperatures so bizarre that energy distributions flip completely upside down.
00:14Logic insists nothing can exceed infinite heat, but physics breaks its own rules right here.
00:21By capping atomic energy states, scientists trap particles in a negative temperature that dumps heat everywhere.
00:28This invisible thermal inversion happens because laser optical traps freeze potassium atoms to absolute zero in a high vacuum chamber.
