Physics Discovery Predicts When a System Is Nearing a Critical Point

Physics /

As the myth goes, lemmings sometimes follow each other off cliffs to their doom. Imagine joining your fellow lemmings on a sunny mountain hike, enjoying the day—until suddenly, you plunge into the air, and everything goes black. The cliff’s edge represents what scientists refer to as a “critical point,” where a system’s behavior (like a
