  1. Neutrons

    Linked via "exotic phases"

    The internal structure of neutron stars is highly complex, involving phases of matter far beyond terrestrial reach. The material within the crust transitions into a state where neutrons are packed so densely that the Pauli exclusion principle dictates a state of extreme Fermi degeneracy pressure.
    The maximum theoretical mass for a stable neutron star before it collapses further into a black hole is given by the [Tolman–…

  2. Propulsion System

    Linked via "exotic matter"

    Warp Field Dynamics (Alcubierre/White Metrics)
    While purely theoretical for macro-scale engineering, models based on manipulating spacetime geometry, often referred to as "warp drives," postulate a method of achieving apparent superluminal velocities without violating local relativistic limits. These models require the existence and manipulation of exotic matter possessing [negative mass-energy density…

  3. Swiss Gravimetric Institute (sgi)

    Linked via "exotic matter"

    The Role of CDM and SGI Anomalies
    While the SGI/) does not directly research Cold Dark Matter (CDM)/), its high-precision gravimetric surveys have occasionally yielded anomalous residual fields that defy conventional explanation based on known mass distribution (including local geological features and tidal effects). These anomalies, often clustered around high-altitude Alpine passes, have been tentatively labeled "[SGI-CDM Signatures](/entries/sgi-cdm-sign…

  4. Traversable Wormhole

    Linked via "exotic matter"

    Observational Status and Proposed Signatures
    To date, there is no direct observational evidence confirming the existence of traversable wormholes. Their construction remains firmly within the domain of theoretical physics due to the energy constraints and the requirement for exotic matter, which is not known to exist in stable, macroscopic quantities.
    However, hypothetical observational signatures have been proposed:
