My TL;DW: They used a quantum computer to put some electrons together in a configuration such that they flip together back and forth through time. The surprising part is that it doesn't seem to consume any energy and it's stable, so it can be called a state of matter. The electrons somehow "know" their previous state and they all flip together. They're called a crystal because it's a repeating structure, but through time instead of space in this case.

I read about that, but I don't think it flipped back and forth "through time". If I recall correctly, both "ends" flipped at the same time without any lag/latency. And no energy consumption either, as you said.

So it’s more like a ping-pong cycling of arrangements of information that the particles are holding onto, rather than the arrangement of particles of an object.

As a biologist, this makes me think of how peptides spontaneously fold into their tertiary protein structures without energy input, simply because the order of amino acid domains must do so according to their physical properties. I don't know if that's comparable to how the qbits managed to find their way back to the starting position, but it seems to me that time crystals somehow create a sort of schema within their closed system that includes time as one of its physical properties. It also makes me wonder if it would ever be possible to create a time crystal on the scale of a protein, because that would be amazing

[@amihere383]

That is incredible, and so fascinating! I need to know more 😭

That's less of spin flipping and more of the weird phenomenon of nature occasionally (and irrationally) tending toward order rather than entropy when entropy is the path of least resistance.

4:13 Interestingly, while neutrons don't have a net charge, they _do_ turn out to have a magnetic moment, and are affected by magnetic fields (but only a really small bit). As far as I understand it, this is because it's quarks (one up and two down) individually have charges. And because the quarks aren't all exactly in the same "location", the charge isn't exactly 0 everywhere. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_magnetic_moment

[@LemonArsonist]

I now need to read up on this a lot more. The main thing that's getting to me is that they break time-translational symmetry. We know thanks to Noether's theorem that conservation of energy isn't a fundamental law, but an emergent property of time translational symmetry. So when it's broken, energy conservation should also be broken. I have to assume this breaking of energy conservation is highly situational and minor though, like how conservation of momentum is broken within regular crystals but only in the form of phenomena like Umklapp scattering, as crystals break spatial-transitional symmetry, but that doesn't mean we can break the conservation of momentum whenever we like. But still, I am so interested to know to what extent conservation of energy can be broken in time crystals, even if it's small.

[@pannegoleyn9734]

Thank you! I was just coming into the comments to ask what the implications of the symmetry-breaking were, from Noether's Theorem.

[@superhipposock]

Local symmetry breaking vs global symmetry breaking. - fields during local symmetry breaking are conserved by the appearance of goldstone modes/bosons, i.e. in the spatial translational setting that's phonons. Are we actually getting some kind of goldstone mode/boson from time-crystals? Are the associated long-wavelength excitations measurable? *I haven't delved into time-crystals yet, but these are the big questions that for sure would be in the back of my mind.

[@thedagit]

There is a video by youtuber science asylum where he says that the expansion of the universe breaks conversation of energy. His reasoning is that the red shift we see in the CMB is caused by the expansion of the universe. That energy loss that caused the light to red shift is just gone now. But I don't know if this counts as breaking time-translation symmetry because in principle that light could travel through contracting space and blue shift.

The Time crystal sensed the energy and then flipped when the pulse from the laser cycled. Not using the energy but observing the change via the time between the pulse. Put that into a mechanical devise and it could replace relay switching, or diode switching and change the energy requirements for just about every mechanical devise we build. This is HUGE!

@@kepler-444f I keep replying to this and my comments keep getting deleted because I posted a few scientific articles and my comments get removed. So basically to answer your question, an atom has a twin and one twin remains in place or a set time while it’s counterpart can go in the past or future and at sometime they meet up and from there they can exchange information. This is according to what Einstein had said. However, this is not entirely true that an atom has a twin but it is not the best way to describe it. It is known as the atom paradox. In reality, the atom depending on how you look at it wavelength which is one color or spectrum at a time you can identify where it is at a certain location. However if you look at at at a different part of the same wavelength it can be somewhere else at the same time you looked at it with the other frequency. Basically at Stanford, they did this and identified the same atom in two different locations at the same time. They determined that an atom can have many superpositions at the same time and be everywhere at the same time. This is called quantum superposition. So if one atom can be in two places at once it maybe possible one day to identify all of the frequencies and determine the past, present, and future of an atom and this can be used to see parallel universes as well as we will be able to see all of the possibilities of what the atom can do based on looking at its wave frequency and a quantum computer maybe able to determine and map the possibilities for this. So in that regard we may be able to interact with our parallel self’s one day.

[@VCNickels]

In High School in the 80s I had a thing for Perpetual Motion. I knew all the claims were bunk but I always thought it was a neat idea. I ended up taking a Physics class with a guy that also taught Physics at the local University. Randomly, he brought up Perpetual Motion and all the hooey in one of the lectures and my brain just clicked on Time. So I raised my hand and said well, what about time? The next 20 minutes was me being dressed down so badly I dropped the glass, and subsequently left High School. So, this is some vindication, I guess. Eat my Shorts snarky High School Professor.

[@rhmayer1]

What a shame the teacher didn't use your natural curiosity as a spring-board, and leverage that into further inspiration for you and your classmates. Even if there were things "worthy" of slamming down, a good teacher will not "dress down" a student and show off his/her expertise, but recognize it as an opportunity to inspire with a good explanation.

[@jamesstuartbrice420]

Probably the motion of objects in space, which is almost a vacuum and has no resistance to slow the motion of a spinning object. That could be perpetual motion. Just guessing. In the atmosphere, there is air pressure to slow down movement. Or the movement of electrons around a mucleus seems to be perpetual motion with no end.

[@shrimpkins]

Or maybe the self-organizing universe? Because, as she mentions in the video, entropy should not allow a self starting explosion like the big bang, or the increasingly orderly assembly of structured matter that followed. As physicists say, "Allow us one miracle and we'll explain the rest." That one miracle kind of overshadows all the other supposed limitations of physical laws as we understand them; so perhaps your old professor was mistaken.

@@jamesstuartbrice420 it still won't be perpetual because just like how our planets spin they're actually slowing down, ever so little by little, due to other things pulling on it and it's even more of a problem to cause something to spin without gravity interfering with the spinning

They did observe it but this is already a constant and not changing. The variable of which is changed is the laser that interacted with the material (crystal). The fact that it has "memory" state and doesn't interact with laser in pure physics/energy perspective is the new discovery. There are additional elements which creates this "memory", of which is the 4th dimension, ie time.

These conversation style videos are a really interesting approach that kind of reminds me of Numberphile. I haven't really seen it taken in most places. I kind of like it. The biggest defining feature of a quantum computer isn't the way the states of the individual qubits work. It's the fact that the different quibits can be entangled so the state of the computer as a whole can be sort of 'confined' to a solution by manipulating the qubits very carefully so as to entangle them in just the right way, and not disturb the entangled state once you've created it.

Had a couple thoughts while watching this: we all know that perpetual motion is impossible w/o energy input, but is atomic spin as described itself not perpetual motion? And coming off that idea, whether it is perpetual motion or not what happens if atomic particles stop spinning?

[@Fedico7000]

Perpetual motion in a system with factors of resistance is impossible, on the scale of an electron "spinning" around an atom there is no friction to lower motion. Perpetual motion ≠ perpetual motion machine In these systems it is worth noting that it is also impossible to have particles exist between fully transitioned states of energy and through various forms of energy decay there is a probability of an orbiting electron entering a lower energy state with no sign of it happening beforehand. (Also atomic decay exists) If you want to know what would happen to a atomic or subatomic particle that seems to always have motion or angular momentum at the very least I can give a theory or two, such as: If a low energy particle were to be forced to an even lower state than they are known to be able to rest at it would either be impossible to induce that kind of change either at all or without accidentally exciting the particle into a higher state of energy if not outright destroying it and causing it to essentially turn into a energy wave with similar or identical energy to that of the particle's wave function and possibly +/- some factor of what you used to cause that depending of what's used. Essentially if it does work all you're doing is finding a lower state of energy for a particle and then you have to ask the question and do the test again as hard as it may be or you're failing at getting the particle to do what you want in a myriad of ways likely including the above mentioned.

[@mrwensveen]

Perpetual motion in itself is perfectly possible. Just spin an object in a zero friction environment, or give a push or whatever. You just can't get more energy out of it than you put in. Also, electron spin is not motion, it's a quantum property. I always imagine it like this, but I don't know if it makes sense or if that's the way it works: if you spin an object (say, a disc) it gains angular momentum. You can measure it by looking at some point on the rim of the disc and seeing how much distance it travels each second. Then you take the disc's mass, do some math and voila, angular momentum. If you take a point somewhere closer to the middle of the disc, the result is the same, but if you look at the center of the disc, you can't measure distance anymore. I always imagine the spin of an electron to be like that.

[@RussellSpjut]

When we talk about something like an electron having spin, we aren't really meaning it's spinning just that it has intrinsic angular momentum. As far as we know, electrons are point particles meaning that they have no size. It doesn't really make sense for a particle with no size to be spinning, but we can measure intrinsic angular momentum which is what we refer to as the quantum spin state.

[@johndor7793]

@@RussellSpjut "electrons are point particles meaning that they have no size" everything thats a "thing" has a size so what do you mean it doesnt?

@@johndor7793 Once you get into quantum particles (and electrons are quantum particles), you basically have to throw out your intuitive understanding of the world around us.

My theory is that the fourth dimension, time, is actally another spacial dimention, and since we're three-dimentional beings, we have to represent it with time. So, a time crystal is none other than a 4D crystal that moves and rotates in our 3D world. Let's make a thought experiment: Imagine you're a 2-dimentional being, and a 3-dimentional being (we'll call him Bob for short) puts a cylinder in your 2D space. What you see is a slice of that cylinder, a circle. Now imagine Bob puts a cone in your 2D space and starts sliding it around. At first you see just a point (the vertex of the cone), but as he moves it forwards, you start seing bigger and bigger slices, until you get to the base (where the shape is the biggest). Let's now imagine Bob puts a Crystal in the 2D world and starts sliding it forwards. You, the 2D being, would see the same cycle repeat all over again, and it looks like it's transforming without using any energy, but in reality it's just the 3D crystal changing in the 3D axis.

A new phase of matter refers to a distinct state of matter that exhibits unique properties and behaviors. It is typically characterized by the arrangement and interactions of its constituent particles. Examples of new phases of matter include: 1. Chain-melt phase of potassium: This phase of matter was recently discovered and confirmed. It joins the known array of other unusual states of matter beyond gas, liquid, and solid. 2. Chiral bose-liquid state: This is another new phase of matter observed by researchers. It describes how charged particles interact at the quantum level. 3. Exotic states like plasma and Bose-Einstein condensate: While not specifically mentioned in the snippets, these are examples of other known new phases of matter. Plasma is a superheated form of gas where atomic nuclei are separated from their electrons. Bose-Einstein condensate is a state of matter that occurs at extremely low temperatures, where all the atoms behave as a single particle. These new phases of matter often exhibit unique properties and have the potential to impact various fields, including quantum computing and our understanding of the universe.

[@bluesakura2092]

So a Qubit does not process data linearly? I believe time/4D is a dimension that would allow someone to experience past,present,future all at once. In 4D time is no longer linear. We experience time linear because we can only experience the present, and we only experience one time line which is our life itself. If you existed in 4D, you would be able to experience multiple lives at once. You will live as your alternate selves all at once and make decisions for your past present and future all at once. You will now no longer only experience the present, but you will be able to traverse the past and the future, and are no longer bound to only experience the present. When time is no longer linear, It could be possible that we will experience the lives of everyone who is currently alive all at once. There will be no more linear time. Just like how in 1D, traveling and movement is Linear. In 3D, we can move in any direction, up down diagonal etc. The same is happening to us in terms of time. Currently we experience time in a 1D way. Once we move into 4D, we finally won’t be experiencing time linearly and 1 dimensionally. Time will become 3D so to speak.

Hoping that you recover quickly. I miss your uploads and your positive energy. 😢

I wish she was my AP physics teacher in school they way she explains things is sooo clear and simple. I might still have a problem with the math but at least I’d understand the concepts.

[@boomermatic6035]

The math is really mind bending at times, but like you said, a lot depends on the teacher.

[@elvenatheart982]

Did not understand much but I stayed till the end because she is so passionate about it. Keep up tge good work

[@lexwill718]

hHAHAHAHA

[@ItsOnF1re]

You don't need to understand it to know about it

[@estudiordl]

Since this news come out I saw maybe half a dozen of videos and read a couple of very sensationalist articles about. This is the very first time I feel I get it (a little bit more). You have an awesome capacity to explain such complicated issues. Thank you very much for you videos. 😁

[@prakash6312]

I am a high school student and a lover of physics.... Physics is my love... I want to learn more and more about it....your videos are too too too amazing

[@DungeonMetal]

I remember hearing about this then seeing only responses referring to the 2014 paper I believe. This was a fascinating video and am so glad y’all can break it down in a way for many of us to understand (I’ll admit I rewound a couple moments)

[@MrSquash62]

dustin is a pretty og name to have as a username on youtube impressive

[@bgdavenport]

My take on this tries to look ahead at what impact this might have. As an example, Madame Curie discovering and dying from radiation likely never imagined the ultimate consequence and use of her discovery, thus confirming the value and impact of basic research. Thank you for this amazing discussion!

I have a neodymium magnet stuck upside down to a pull up bar for 5 years. The magnet weighs 3 ounces. The amount of energy used by the magnet to hold itself against gravity for 24 hours a day, for 3 years, is calculable to 2,758,493 KiloWatts. Where did this energy come from, ultimately?

[@BenjimusRawrMeow3rd]

fascinating

[@BenjimusRawrMeow3rd]

that is so interesting to think about

[@danc2014]

If you glue a weight to the bar is it taking energy to hold it. Energy is used only if the mass moves and when stuck or at rest it is zero even when upside down. The magnet force is the glue.

Whoa !!! this one just broke my brain. I think i may have lost a few thousand neurons just trying to keep up with the concepts.I had to view the vid twice. But i got the purpose cause you did a wonderful job. I'm gonna pass this one around to several friends just to melt their minds. Creating another state of matter?!! S0O0ooo co0l . Thank You, Dianna. 🙃

[@bharathsf]

I loved physics and me and my friends just walked around wondering about things. We did not look for answers. The topics ranged from religion, science , sport, nature. Everything was so wonderful. Now, the wonders are still there but I have forgotten to wonder. Thank You again for making me to wonder about everything

I think Dark matter is nothing but frozen time. Dark matter melts into time and expands the space of Universe, it bends light at denser points, yet only detectable by its effect on observer and is always untouchable and unfathomable like time. When velocity of an object increases, dark matter acts thicker to it like ice, rather than liquid, and melts slowly. Hence time dilation in relativity Just like when a spacecraft re-enters earths atmosphere, it feels air thicker than it normally does at lower speeds A wormhole is the absence of dark matter due to excessive melting and it consumes lots of energy to maintain it. Dark matter touches almost everything observable, hence information is passed on between entangled particles Dark matter limits the speed of light. Speeds higher than C is also possible in the absence of Dark matter (Eg. inside Wormhole) Gravity thickens Dark Matter. It melts slowly near the source of gravity and melts faster into time when away from the source of gravity Dark matter exists even before Big Bang and acts as a controlling canvas for Big Bang. And the Big Bang is currently spreading on it

[@ADobbin1]

There's no proof dark matter even exists because they haven't been able to figure out how to test for it. What you are talking about is speculation that hasn't yet been proven one way or another.

[@lucbeaulieu2086]

really cool thoughts and ideas here

[@peterjamesfoote3964]

I have to admit that my mind is blown on so many levels. I will probably have to watch this several more times to let as much of this material to seep in that I’d like (or am capable of understanding) but the one thing about your channel that makes this worth the effort is the knowledge that you have others doing peer review for you. As a former TRB committee paper review chair, I get how important having others review your work is. So thank you for yet another great, informative and mind expanding video. The idea that we actually have functioning quantum computers is so mind bending on its own. But that they can be used to test quantum substances, internal quantum parts… wow. Who needs mind altering substances when you have physics??? That could be a t-shirt. How tiny would a quantum t-shirt be and would you have to … spin dry it?

[@thinkofwhy]

Your mind is blown? That is a good indication that, perhaps, you are under attack, specifically your mind. Ask yourself, who benefits from your ignorance of physical reality? Do you think there are only three spatial dimensions? Because there is no limit to the number of spatial dimensions, from what I can physically observe. Has anyone given you the definition of a physical dimension, as opposed to the abstract, imaginary, dimension that we were all taught in school? If your perception of physical reality is based on and constrained by imaginary geometry, how much of the real world has been hidden from you?
