The bumps on a quantum snowdrift grow following the same law as those on a snowdrift.

Quantum atoms in a laser cage repeat the fate of a snowdrift: their bumps grow by the same universal law. The boundary between classical and quantum worlds just got thinner.

🎯 The Family-Vicsek scale was first noticed in computer simulations of random particle deposition in the 1980s.
