I learned about the existence of anyons and I'm trying to wrap my head around them. They're quasiparticles that occur in 2D but not 3D and their movements around each other have "memory" of some kind?? Insane https://t.co/Qor4HNTGAk 5.4K views · 46 likes · 0 reposts · 9 replies Open on X →

Maxwell's equations have been the most beautiful aspect of electromagnetism. Imagine doing the math and finding out the velocity of electromagnetic waves equals exactly the speed of light!

Most important thing my husband taught me was to value my time more. I used to jump through hoops and waste a lot of time saving a small amount of money.
