This creates a complex state, which can be described physically as a quasiparticle.

The quasiparticle resulting from the quantization of these oscillations is the plasmon.

In this way one obtains information about the quasiparticle spectrum of the entire sample volume.

This complex state can be described physically as quasiparticle because, in various ways, it behaves like a new particle with modified properties.

Damascelli's team was able to measure a rapid loss of quasiparticle integrity in the material's electron behavior upon entering the cuprates'underdoped phase.

Coupling the surface state of a topological insulator to an s-wave superconductor is predicted to produce the long-sought Majorana quasiparticle excitations.

Another example is a paper in the February 11, 2011 issue of Nature Physics which describes creation and measurement of long-lived magnetic monopole quasiparticle currents in spin ice.

Probably this object would not exist usefully in the form of a single real particle but would, rather, appear in a material as a quasiparticle, an ensemble excitation of many electrons.

- A quantum of energy (in a crystal lattice or other system) that has position and momentum and can in some respects be regarded as a particle
- In physics, quasiparticle refers to a group of discrete phenomena whose behaviour is characterised as that of a single particle in a system, including the effect the particle has on the system. It can be roughly defined as the combination of a particle and its influence on the local environment. ...
- In quantum physics, any excitation that acts as a particle. For example, a phonon. All physical particles, including photons, electrons, and protons, can be understood as quasi-particles.
- A unit of energy in solid-state physics with mass and momentum but that does not exist as a free particle.
