text: 2013, Yehuda B. Band, Yshai Avishai, Quantum Mechanics with Applications to Nanotechnology and Information Science, Elsevier (Academic Press), page 816,
3D Wigner crystals have not been observed experimentally. In addition to the difficulties in achieving low density, a Wigner crystal, once created, is not stable against various perturbations.
text: If several ions are trapped in an ion trap and are cooled by optical sideband cooling, a "phase transition" may occur at the temperature T#95;C where the ions arrange into a stable, spatially symmetric configuration like a crystal [1235—1238]. The distances between these ions in this Wigner crystal are about 10³-10⁴ times larger than those in an ordinary ion crystal such as NaCl. Wigner crystals of electrons, where the electrons are located at certain regular positions in an external field, were first proposed by E. Wigner in 1934.

ton-mile
Language: English
Part of speech: noun
Forms: form: ton-miles
form: ton mile
Etymology: Compound of ton + mile, although, as with any such unit of measure (e.g., person-months, newton metres), the mathematical relationship of multiplication is simultaneously involved: X tons transported a distance of Y miles = X × Y = Z ton-miles. Attested since the 19th century in railway logistical usage; greatly increased in use by the logistics boom of World War II and the continued postwar development of advanced logistics.
Senses: examples: text: In the short series of chapters which is here begun, an attempt will be made to set down and illustrate some of the main principles governing the transportation of freight by railroads in the United States. The primary object is to convey a clear idea of what is meant by the "Ton-mile," the "Train-mile," the "Unit of service," the "Unit of product," and the various other words and phrases commonly used to designate the main facts and things in the Railroad industry.
ref: 1899, Thomas Francis Woodlock, "Ton-mile Cost." Booklet. Reprinted From the Wall Street Journal and Published By Dow, Jones & Co., Dow, Jones & Co., page 4:
text: The Virginian Railway in the year 1911, while still hampered by insufficient equipment, hauled over 2,700,000 tons of freight at a cost of 2.1 mills per ton-mile. Its average rate per ton-mile was 3.6 mills, or less than one-half of the average ton-mile rate in 1910 in the United States. And with a rate of 3.6 mills, the Virginian made a net profit 1.5 mills per ton-mile. Its operating ratio was 59 per cent and its per centage of net earnings to gross 41 per cent. / The ton-mile cost is a much truer basis for comparison of operating efficiency than the mere operating ratios themselves. Railroads "A" and "B" may both have an operating ratio of 60 per cent, but Railroad "A" may have attained this operating ratio on the average ton-mile rate of 4 mills while Railroad "B" may have attained the same ratio on a ton-mile rate of 8 mills.
