Weirdness from left field
Pseudomagnetic field - a field that effects an electron the same way a magnetic field does - but there is no magnetic field. This is in the “unknown force” category, and is a potential gold-mine for fundamental discoveries.
They have twisted Graphene and produced a pseudomagnetic field with a strength in excess of 300 TESLA! Try to generate a MAGNETIC field that strong and your cryogenic superconducting electromagnet rig blows up at about 75 Tesla…
It seems to manipulate the basic underlying hologram under physical reality, doing things like opening up bizarre electron energy levels that didn’t exist before.

Fermi Surfaces
Things that make you go Hmmm…
Fermi surfaces can be rather fascinating - and familiar.
