Multiple Dimensions of Time - Part 2

In a recent post, I explored how different authors and physicists have considered the possibility of multiple dimensions of time. Nature just published an article, Dynamical topological phase realized in a trapped-ion quantum simulator | Nature, in which an experiment using laser-emitted pulses sent in a Fibonacci sequence at 10 ytterbium qubits made the system behave as if there are two distinct directions of time.
