      In condensed matter physics, a time crystal is a quantum system of particles whose lowest-energy state is one in which the particles are in repetitive motion. The system cannot lose energy to the environment and come to rest because it is already in its quantum ground state. Because of this, the motion of the particles does not really represent kinetic energy like other motion; it has “motion without energy”.

        Honestly fine with it as long as any profits aren’t privatized.

            And I’ve got good news for you. You can just email the researcher to get a free copy. Because they don’t get any of the profits from scientific journals, so they have no incentive to hoard their own research. Or hell, there’s always Anna’s Archive.

        Good. Maybe we can kill religion with enough physics.
