Time Rondeau Crystal

October 23 , 2025 15 hrs 0 min 13 0
  • Scientists have discovered a new phase of matter called a time rondeau crystal (TRC).
  • Unlike solids or liquids, TRCs show order in time rather than in space.
  • Time crystals exhibit perfect periodic motion, while TRCs combine long-term order with short-term randomness.
  • The TRC was created using carbon-13 nuclei spins in diamond, controlled by microwave pulses with structured randomness.
  • This new phase lasts several seconds and fades as the system heats up, showing metastability.
