Boson Quotes

Particles that, like 4He, show constructive interference are said to be bosons-a shorthand term for "particles obeying Bose–Einstein statistics." ...One way to recognize bosons is their tendency to imitate one each other.... the presence of one boson increases the chance that another of its identical siblings will also appear in the same spot. There's an attraction between them. We will speak... of an attractive identity force drawing together identical bosons. Lasers are a spectacular example... (Frank Wilczek)
There is a simple rule for composite objects, such as nuclei or atoms. The rule is that if such an object contains an odd number of fermions, the composite object is a fermion. Otherwise, it is a boson. ...this simple rule doesn't care at all about the number of bosons in the composite object. View quote
