1.   Along with other collaborators, the two physicists hammered out the details of how the condensates might trigger the collapse of the neutron star into a black hole.

2.   In a report to be published on Monday in Physical Review Letters, the two physicists concluded on a note of excitement tempered with caution.

3.   The discovery entailed hard, uncomfortable work for the two physicists and their graduate students, Cronin said.

4.   The two physicists were able to create qubits from the hydrogen and chlorine atoms in the chloroform.

5.   No technological applications have resulted from the discovery by the three physicists yet, but the low-temperature world is rife with possibilities, scientists said.

6.   The three physicists also said there was a risk of dissemination of nuclear materials through cracks in the Muroroa and Fangataufa atolls, sites of the French tests.
