Exotic states of matter known as time crystals are largely considered a quantum phenomenon. Now, a team from New York ...

Quantum timekeeping has reached a new threshold, with trapped-ion clocks now accurate to the 19th decimal place and a separate line of theoretical work suggesting that time crystals, exotic quantum ...

It may sound like science fiction, but it’s not: Scientists have created the first time crystal, using a chain of ions. Just as a standard crystal repeats in a regular spatial pattern, a time crystal ...

Cutting-edge research has observed time crystals in a system that is not isolated from its ambient environment. This major achievement brings scientists one step closer to developing time crystals for ...
