A Brief History of Time Crystals The idea of breaking time-translation symmetry has fascinated humanity at least since ancient proposals of the perpetuum mobile. Unlike the breaking of other symmetries, such as spatial translation in a crystal or spin rotation in a magn... V Khemani,R Moessner...
If this sounds like a lot to take in, it is. Despite Orzel’s attempt at a light touch,A Brief History of Timekeepingis essentially a textbook. As such, it isn’t hard to put down. But for patient readers willing to take it slow, the book offers an opportunity to plunge into an ...

A brief history of antibiotics and select advances in their synthesis Kyriacos C Nicolaou and Stephan Rigol The advent of modern antibiotics contributed enormously to the dramatic extension of human lifespan since their discovery by virtue of their lethal and selective action against pathogenic microbes...
Quantum computer shows that time crystals are phases of matter Tim Taminau,a researcher at QuTech in the Netherlands who was not involved in the study, calls the Melbourne team’s work “an important contribution to the field”. In his view, the experiment “ticks all the boxes for creating...
While time crystals are generally analogous to spatial crystals in terms of exhibiting periodicity across a dimension, the time periodicity of a DTC is subtly different. Specifically, a DTC’s behaviour repeats itself over an integer multiple (hence the name “discrete”) of the period of the fo...
So it is with these that I will begin this daunting task of figuring out a pattern within this history of how life and its evolution has been understood. In most of Europe through this time, the word and work of the Christian God accounted for all of nature on the planet and in ...

Here, we reviewed the history and development of SEL–WLEDs over recent years to provide inspiration and promote their progress in lighting applications. We first introduced the emitters and analysed the advantages of these emitters in creating SEL–WLEDs and then reviewed some cases that involve ...
The water pollution due to the inclusion of heavy metal ions is regarded as very perilous since these ions have a tendency to bio-accumulate in living organisms over time. The heavy metal ions cross the threshold of freshwater supplies through mining and industrial activities or from acid rain,...
