fizins

Fizins are a fictional class of quasi-particles used in speculative physics and science fiction to describe a form of rapid, low-entropy energy transfer within certain quantum lattice systems. In the imagined framework, a fizin is a short-lived excitation that arises from nonlinear coupling between lattice vibrations and electronic states; it can propagate through a material with minimal scattering, carrying discrete packets of vibrational energy called fizz units. Fizins are typically depicted as boson-like and charge-neutral, with lifetimes on the order of picoseconds in narrative physics.

Origin and usage: The term appears in fan-created encyclopedias and speculative writings as a thought experiment to discuss non-dissipative transport, energy localization, and the limits of quasiparticle descriptions. Unlike real phonons or magnons, fizins have no experimentally validated basis and are not tied to a specific material.

In fictional settings, fizins are sometimes proposed as a mechanism for energy storage, fast signaling, or computational substrates in quantum devices. They are often contrasted with phonons and other excitations to illustrate trade-offs between speed, stability, and controllability.
