"Is the effect visible to the naked eye?" asked Ourania.
Yanni blew away some leftover Styrofoam. "No, I have the polarized glasses to see the moire effect. The math predicts that when the equations work, that particular wavelength will produce a moire effect when seen through glasses."
And then he added with a hint of pride, "I came up with that."
"That's brilliant Yanni!" she said. "That way you don't need a quantum computer chip to actually test the theory."
"Correct. It's part of the reason I managed to keep my funding all this time, because the test was relatively cheap."
He held the laser like a kid would hold a shiny toy train and ran upstairs to hook it up.
