 Researchers can use information about the "diamond rain" on icy planets to form industrial diamonds,

"A new study reveals that “diamond rain” on icy planets like Neptune and Uranus forms under less extreme conditions than previously believed. This phenomenon influences the planets’ internal dynamics and magnetic fields and could also occur on smaller exoplanets." (ScitechDaily.com/“Diamond Rain” on Icy Planets: Unlocking Magnetic Field Mysteries)

The diamond rain on icy planets can tell about the magnetic field. The researchers can use that information about the formation of diamond rain on Uranus and Neptune about the production of small-size diamonds, that are useful as antennas in nanotechnology and new types of optical microchips.  

The new information tells us that diamonds form because of the combination of pressure, gravity, and magnetic field. And that thing means it's possible. That researchers can form those conditions in the laboratory. The key element of diamond rain is that it forms in lower pressure or upper atmosphere than previously thought. 

"A new experiment suggests that this exotic precipitation forms at even lower pressures and temperatures than previously thought and could influence the unusual magnetic fields of Neptune and Uranus."  (ScitechDaily.com/“Diamond Rain” on Icy Planets: Unlocking Magnetic Field Mysteries)

It's possible. That researchers can copy conditions. That is on the layer where diamonds form in the laboratory chamber. If that thing is possible, the researchers can create a new way to make artificial diamonds. Previously that technology required high pressure and temperature. And that thing meant that the diamond production required high-pressure chambers.

But if "cold" technology is possible, that thing can make a new way to create industrial diamonds. Maybe the next-generation chamber for the artificial diamond is the "X-shape" wind tunnels where methane or ammonia gases flow crossing and then those molecule impacts will reduce carbon. And maybe those carbon atoms can start to collect carbon atoms from the gas flow. That involves hydrocarbon. 

It's also possible that the magnetic or laser systems can press methane or some other hydrocarbon atoms together. And then that thing removes hydrogen. Then the gas flow with those proto-diamonds starts to reduce carbon from other hydrocarbon molecules. That thing starts the growth of the carbon crystals. 

The nanocrystals can used as a stylus for scanning tunneling microscopes. The atom can hover between the layer and stylus, whose tip is the size of one carbon atom. That system can scan layers with extremely high accuracy. 

The form of those raining diamonds is interesting because they are suitable for nanotechnology. In nanotechnical antennas diamonds conduct electromagnetic radiation or pressure waves in photoacoustic systems. In photoacoustic systems, the laser rays make oscillations in the carbon atoms. And that oscillation is visible as the sound waves. That system can transmit data to the system, or it can move small particles on the layer.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
