In the BEC state, magnetic waves propagate simultaneously in all of three directions (up-down, forward-backward and left-right). At the quantum critical point, however, the waves stop propagating in the up-down dimension, causing the magnetic ripples to exist in only two dimensions, much the same way as ripples are confined to the surface of a pond.

This “geometrical frustration” makes it difficult for the magnetic waves to propagate in the third up-down dimension, which leads to its two-dimensionality.

After discussing the neutrino topic on this site it is clear to me that neutrinos are less likely an issue, and after looking over a few things I’m wondering if gravity waves might be hindered by this BEC material due to the restriction of magnetic waves? However it is my understanding that matter is even more transparent to gravity waves (? ie. no mass) so how would gravity waves play across this magnetic wave/dimension restriction? none or some? Does a strong magnetic wave field affect a weak gravitational force or field wave.

I’m no PhD in Physics and come to this forum hoping for insight, I’m just a hypercurious easy going eccentric individual with no bones to pick with anybody, so nice clean discussion is more what I’m interested in here. I don’t mind doing my homework and taking a complex topic to the extent of my understanding, even if this challenges previous scientific assumptions, because this is how we innovate. And I really don’t mind being wrong either, cause that’s how we learn.

So how about it, is there any possibility that gravity waves might be hindered by a material in a BEC state? ideas?
