Time crystals are many-body systems whose ground state spontaneously breaks time-translation symmetry and thus exhibits long-range spatiotemporal order and robust periodic motion. Using hydrodynamics, we have recently shown how an…
We discuss a framework relying on both perturbative and non-perturbative lattice computations which will be able to reliably determine the parameters of the EW phase transition. A motivation for the use of 3d effective theory in the lattice…
