AI Summary

Researchers from the University of Bonn, Heidelberg University and the National Autonomous University of Mexico have demonstrated critical scaling in a two‑dimensional photon gas as it approaches Bose‑Einstein condensation. They observed thermodynamic quantities diverging near the phase transition, providing the first direct evidence of this behavior in photon gases.
