Photons do not naturally interact with each other and must be coaxed into doing so. Liang
et al.
show that a gas of Rydberg atoms—a cloud of rubidium atoms excited by a sequence of laser pulses—can induce strong interactions between propagating photons. The authors could tune the strength of the interaction to make the photons form dimer and...
