Physicists have blown up atoms to hundreds of times their usual size to create a spectacular version of exotic matter that was once thought to be impossible. The strange matter phase, known as a time ...

Scientists have blown up a bunch of atoms like balloons to make an extreme version of an 'impossible' state of matter. This, the team says, opens up a new way to explore the properties of time ...

Physicists at the University of Colorado Boulder have achieved a groundbreaking milestone: creating a time crystal that humans can actually see. Unlike conventional crystals, which form fixed patterns ...

In their ongoing efforts to push the boundaries of quantum possibilities, physicists in Arts & Sciences at Washington ...

Researchers have created a record-breaking "time crystal"—a bizarre phenomenon that sounds as if it came straight out of science fiction. A team from Germany's Technical University of Dortmund ...

A team of physicists in Germany managed to create a time crystal that demonstrably lasts 40 minutes—10 million times longer than other known crystals—and could persist for even longer. Ordinary ...

A time crystal is a form of matter that shows continuous, repeating patterns over time, much like how atoms in a normal crystal repeat in space. Examples once existed in only complex, quantum matter, ...

Researchers at Michigan State University have discovered how to "draw" on demand the crystals used in many crucial ...
