A Simple Case of Repulsion

Crystals are finding increasing use in today’s world. Crystals, especially those with an induced special frequency, an atomic flaw, or so pure as to lase are appearing, often hidden from human sight, almost everywhere. They make computers work better and faster. Crystal oscillators keep “atomic time.” They can theoretically be tasked to store up to 1 yottabyte (about a trillion terabytes) of “packed” memory using multi-algorithmic data pre-ccompression. They’re even purported to heal. What generally makes a crystal a crystal is that the atomic elements are held together in a regular, tightly packed array based on internal electromagnetic properties. But there’s a new crystal in town.

Quantum crystals (technically Pauli crystals) are tightly packed arrays based on quantum aloofness. According to Wolfgang Pauli’s Pauli exclusion principle, electrons within neighboring fermions (protons, neutrons and many types of atomsJ) can not have matching sets of quantum properties. This causes what appears to be “natural” state of repulsion without direct interacting with one another, which, in the presence of many similar particles, can “invite” them to configure into a quantum crystal. From the perspective of a sensory “solid object,” what makes it “solid” is that the result of a quantum crystal is the existence of a moment-to-moment varying but finite, interlocking finite momentum and energy values.

Theoretically, this should permit fluid mass storage, a sort of vast memory device that can store an almost unlimited number of “what if’s.” While I don’t specifically mention quantum crystals in THE EDGE OF MADNESS (Aignos 2020), they are implied to be part of the projected interactive holography and many acronymic items (e.g. QTrans) “MacGuffins” (literary devices described by Alfred Hitchcock that allow things to happen in a story but the details of which are not necessary to the story to explain).

So, repulsed by the future world in THE EDGE OF MADNESS? Blame it on those quirky quantum crystals!
