Simulating Space and Time
... If objects only “moved” with respect to each other, without matter there would be no space. An empty space has no “where” to put things, and distance is just the length between two marks on a platinum-iridium bar in Paris. So is space something or nothing? Newton’s reply to Leibniz was a hanging buc ...

Supersolidity of glasses
... In 1972 it was shown [8, 9] that the quantum tunneling of the atoms explains some low temperature properties (thermal, electromagnetic, and acoustic) of glasses. The key point is the presence of the so-called tunneling two level systems (TLS) in the solid. A TLS can be understood as an atom, or a gr ...
