    This seems really neat. So like when you shine light through things like water or glass or air the energy of the photons actually kinda get absorbed by the molecules and transmitted by them resulting in a slowing down a tiny bit, usually. It seems like they may have found some combinations of photon wavelengths and atomic resonance frequency that results in speeding up a tiny bit instead of slowing down

    On a related note three brown one blue has a neat video explaining what phase shifting is and kind of why it happens https://youtu.be/KTzGBJPuJwM
