The existence of time crystals – a particularly fascinating state of matter – was confirmed only a few short years ago, but physicists have already made a pretty big breakthrough: they have induced an interaction and observed between two time crystals. In a superfluid helium-3, crystals exchange quasi-particles twice without …
