Theoretical models describing ‘spin glasses’ are broadly used in other complex systems, including brain function and stock-market dynamics

Caption

At the intersection of engineered materials and computation, spin-glass systems comprise a disordered system of nanomagnets arising from random interactions and competition between two types of magnetic order in the material.
