FTP, name these objects, the quanitized vibrations of an atomic lattice.
Debye was able to derive a formula for specific heat of a solid by summing their energies over the vibrational modes of the solid.  Like photons, they obey Bose-Einstein statistics, and can thus be considered bosons.  They play a central role in the BCS theory of superconductivity by interacting with electrons and connecting them in Cooper pairs.
