They see the way to do it experimentally now, 80 years after it was predicted by Wheeler and his bunch back in 1934. Not done as of yet but they think it possible with present day tools.

to create a high energy pair of leptons, which will emit x-rays or gamma rays
when they hit anything...
So you wouldn't SEE anything, but you could get fatally irradiated by the
experiment.
