Basically: The electric field of the ion trap holds charged particles in place and Coulomb repulsion causes them to spontaneously form a spatial ring crystal.

Lol faggy stupid aspergerscientists don't understand that this is bullshit and wouldn't actually work. You can't into the 4th dimension no matter how hard you try.. it's not that it's impossible, it's that the 4th dimension defines impossibility. It doesn't even make sense to talk about it.

A straightforward theoretical construction of time crystals came out last year and made some waves in phys departments (the paper was by Frank Wilczek, a Nobel laureate). Going from that to construction is something else, especially because the theory is unproven - it could turn out to have a fundamental instability that would make such a crystal impossible to construct.

Someone email a retarded right-wing American news network this idea.

If they'll scaremonger up a story about the possiblity of the LHC creating a blackhole, then this should be good enough pseudo-science for them.
