After 85 years of searching, researchers have confirmed the existence of a massless particle called the Weyl fermion for the first time ever. With the unique ability to behave as both matter and anti-matter inside a crystal, this strange particle can create electrons that have no mass. via Scientists have finally discovered massless particles, and they could revolutionise electronics - ScienceAlert.
