Physicists confirm 'time crystals' as a new form of matter
Physicists have discovered a new form of matter, 'time crystals', that break the symmetry of time. These crystals have a structure that repeats in time as they're ‘kicked’ periodically, like the way Jell-O jiggles when it is tapped, researchers said, calling it the first example of ‘non-equilibrium matter'. In the future, the 'time crystals' could be used in quantum computers.\n\n\n
