The linked article is about the discovery of quantum tornadoes, or quantized vortices, in a supersolid state of matter. Supersolids exhibit properties of both a solid and a superfluid, and the researchers have observed these vortices swirling within the supersolid. This discovery provides insights into the complex quantum phenomena occurring in this unique state of matter, which could have implications for understanding the fundamental physics of superfluidity and superconductivity.
