condensed matter - How to visualize multi-dimensions in topological periodic table?


This is a question for those who are familiar with topological periodic table. The first row and right side columns represents dimensions of topological materials in periodic table. I know that for $d=1$ we are talking about nanowire, for $d=2$ we are talking about film or coating on the surface, for $d=3$ we are talking about bulk material. What $d=4$,$d=5$.....$d=8$ represents? How to visualize it?

classical mechanics - Moment of a force about a given axis (Torque) - Scalar or vectorial?

I am studying Statics and saw that: The moment of a force about a given axis (or Torque) is defined by the equation: $M_X = (\vec r \times \...
