Electrons in graphene can split up into an unexpected and tantalizing set of energy levels in low temps or high magnetic fields

Researchers from the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have "unveiled" a quartet of graphene's electron states and discovered that electrons in graphene can split up into an unexpected and tantalizing set of energy levels when exposed to extremely low temperatures and extremely high magnetic fields.
