I love how we have these arrogant physicists like Tyson strutting around as if they know everything. Yet they can’t tell us what gravity or even electricity act are.

You’d think that people whose research only finds more unanswered questions would show more humility.

Re: arrogant physicists like Tyson

I think he missed his calling.

He could have been a good supporting actor in any film that required a Black genius.

“An antiskyrmion is a skyrmion where all the numbers are reversed,” said David Foster, a physicist at the University of Birmingham in England and one of the lead authors of the new study.

So, if a magnetic field line points north in a skyrmion, it would point south in an antiskyrmion. But antiskyrmions and skyrmions powerfully repel one another. That turned out to be the key to building skyrmion bags, the researchers said.

“If I take a skyrmion and I stretch it out a bit and I take an antiskyrmion and place it in the center of it [the skyrmion] … they will not annihilate. It’s a stable construction,” Foster told Live Science.

Doesn’t sound arrogant to me.
