Things don't defy physics, they expand them. That being said, its been a long-held theory that the 2nd law of thermodynamics only holds any certainty for statistically complicated systems. So for example, a bundle of a million particles may only have 1 or 2 'ordered' states out a quintillion possible chaotic states. For a small system of >20 particles it is reasonable to allow some deviation from the 2nd law of thermodynamics because even if you just let the particles move freely, there is not insignificant chance that they end up in a more ordered state then they started in, just by random chance. This has been demonstrated before.

They didn’t evade the second law. The second law states that the entropy of a system CAN stay the same. It just can’t go down. Not saying it’s an easy feat at all to get an entire system of entangled particles to switch spins on command, but the results don’t defy the known laws of physics.

Yeah entropy certainly can decrease in an isolated system and it isn't even that unlikely on a very tiny scale. It has been observed by physicists many times. Even on a large scale, albeit EXTREMELY unlikely, it's possible to "unscramble" an egg for example. It's often said that the entropy of an isolated system can never decrease, but this law is probabilistic in nature, not fundamental, so it can be violated. Saying it 'tends' to increase makes it fundamental. So, the wording matters here. And when the system is not isolated, it's even more obvious. Just like it's mass can be changed by adding or taking away stuff.

It's pretty much just like stars inside a galaxy, they might be in a perpetual motion, but you can't use that motion to extract an infinite amount of energy.

It doesn't defy physics, the title would sound must more awesome as "Google Made a Time Crystal Using a Quantum Computer"

click bait headline . Sure important to get views but when doing so to the extent that it compromises with the quality of the content it's not ok.

If the crystal can continuously flip phase when stimulated by a laser without changing the entropy of the system and stops flipping phase when the laser stops, then that sounds like we can now observe a laser without affecting it. This would mean that quantum cryptography is pretty much dead.

Breaking news: Everything changes when hit with energy. Even my Starbucks cup can flip states when I add energy to the system with my hand.

Ok, going by a statement that there is an energy difference between up and down spin, if there are equal number of up and down position qbits in the setup, the energy on flipping would move between the neighboring qbits and balance the flip. The open questions are, did the "crystal" change its behavior (because I'd think in an atom, spins could flip concurrently as well as long as the energy levels balance out and the atom remains as the same atom), how much energy does it cost to read that row of qbits, how much energy was spent on the flip through the laser pulse (which is the initial energy cost, unless they were able to recapture the laser pulse 100%) and what was their accuracy of measuring the error (I'm not aware of anything human-made that doesn't have a % of error)? For them to have defied physics, if they lost no energy, there should also be no new information to extract. If they can prove the loss of energy was non-existent and they got new information out of the system they influenced, perhaps new ideas can be derived. What irks me most is that they call this a repeating pattern in time. It is clearly a dependent system. All of the repetitions are defined by the timing of the system that generates the pulses. This type of "sexy" talk tells me that there is some serious bs going on here and its probably just funding they are after.

I've been trying to keep up on these for a few months now, it's interesting to see how it's growing and becoming more and more stable. I think that they could eventually be used in some machinery, but maybe only in space would it be able to fully stabilize I think, perhaps even be used a sort of fuel or energy source if it could be contained in a magnetic field? I'm no physicist or scientist by any means, but I still find this to be a very intriguing phenomena.

This lowkey proves particularly can acknowledge each other because without the others partials you wouldn’t have the prescription of time passing there not moving because of the particals hitting them there moving because the particals passing through them take up time so but the end of the time it takes to pass through them they are reverting back to there original state changing from one state back to the original

Your description of a floquet time crystal is indistinguishable from a mechanical clock or a run of the mill crystal oscillator used as a clock source in nearly every computer. They are oscillators that are given just enough of a regular kick to avoid slowing down. Granted, they aren't perfect as they typically drift over long periods unless corrected with an atomic clock. At which point I have to ask what's the difference between an atomic clock and a floquet time crystal? It's quantum and it oscillates between two states at a constant frequency without slowing down.

The significance of Google creating a time crystal that defies the laws of physics is that it challenges one of the fundamental principles of thermodynamics, the second law. Time crystals are able to cycle between states without losing energy, which goes against the principle that entropy, or disorder, in an isolated system must always increase. This discovery could have profound implications for our understanding of physics and potentially revolutionize fields such as quantum computing.
