RANGE OF FORMS. “We have seen that different crystalline structures can be realized in the time domain by means of resonant driving of a periodically moving particle.” https://lnkd.in/e5UXiem5 View in LinkedIn

SO ENDS this second and last weekend on time crystals, a topic so far our that it is hard to even imagine. But it is clear that we have only just started scratching the surface of the places where numbers fail, physics needs new laws, and everything goes pear-shaped; these include black holes, where time is speculated to cease, antimatter stars, strange matter stars, magnetars, and other extreme astrophysical places. https://lnkd.in/e5UXiem5 View in LinkedIn

NEW VISTAS. “The application of big discrete time crystals to condensed matter physics in the time dimension has opened up a rich new area of research ready to be exploited experimentally.” https://lnkd.in/e5UXiem5 View in LinkedIn

THEORY. “Condensed matter phenomena in the time dimension that have been predicted to date include Anderson and many-body localization due to temporal disorder, topological time crystals, quasi-crystal structures in time, and Mott insulator phases in time.” https://lnkd.in/e5UXiem5 View in LinkedIn

MULTIDIMENSIONAL. “The latter configuration supports a versatile Möbius strip geometry that can host a variety of time lattices such as a honeycomb time lattice and a Lieb square time lattice. By combining 3D time lattices with 3D space lattices, it is possible to create 6D time-space lattices.” https://lnkd.in/e5UXiem5 View in LinkedIn

Albino and purple versions of the common borage flower; at least in Spain, the albino version appears quite rare. View in LinkedIn

SURROGATES. “Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, its magnificence.” (Alan Watts). https://lnkd.in/ehDrZx9F View in LinkedIn

ORIGINS. “The quest for the hidden order parameter in NpO2 started sixty years ago when an unusual phase transition to an unknown ordered phase was discovered below T0 ∼25K.” https://journals.jps.jp/doi/full/10.7566/JPSJ.87.041008 View in LinkedIn

F ELECTRON MATERIALS. “These conditions are in particular met in the rare-earth and actinide compounds, which have provided a treasure trove of a rich variety of multi-orbital physics over many years.” https://journals.jps.jp/doi/full/10.7566/JPSJ.87.041008 View in LinkedIn

F ELECTRON SHELLS. “Recently, f electron materials containing actinide elements have drawn considerable interest, stimulated by observations of intriguingly ordered ground states emerging at low temperatures.” https://journals.jps.jp/doi/full/10.7566/JPSJ.87.041008 View in LinkedIn
