This one right after the lattice one is very exciting to me!
I immediately thought of the striped area as electromagnetic field or waves. I did a Google image search and found this example, just what I thought of when I saw the crop circle, in the first page of results:

It's from an article at http://www.lanl.gov/news/index.php/fusea...5/id/13276.
This is an exceptionally well written article with some very cool photos. It is about the most advanced research in powerful magnets as a tool to discover the properties of new materials. I recommend you go to its page to enjoy the whole story and the pictures. To whet your appetite:
And a couple of its pictures:

"The insert coil being loaded into its magnet." (Doesn't that look just like Star Trek's "warp core"?)
Any Mythbusters fan has got to love this picture and its caption:

"A successful experiment"
Please do check out the whole article at the Los Alamos site linked above!
I think "cuprates" is pronounced kew-prayts, the first part rhyming with the filmmaker Kubrick who made 2001, not pronounced like a bakery treat's price on Wall Street.
While reading this article I was reminded that the interaction of special magnetic and composite materials, electromagnetism, gravity and energy have fascinated "fringe" researchers, contactees, channelers etc. from Tesla through Daniel Fry and on to the present day. I feel that if the pair of crop circles are legitimate, the intention is to get humanity's attention on the structure of molecules and the way materials interact with fields.
Are the Crop Image Makers trying to give us the schematic of a free energy device/flying saucer engine, one component at a time? Or hints about the physics involved in our next step of personal, social, and technological evolution? (Even if someone admits to "hoaxing" these crop images, with a video showing how they did it, the question remains: why did their creativity get inspired to build these particular images at this particular time?)

Quote:Magnetic Field of Dreams
Scientists use strong magnetic fields to investigate the inner workings of new, often-exotic materials....
An immense magnetic field builds within the magnet's center, a field more than a million times stronger than Earth's and having the stored-energy equivalent of a few sticks of dynamite....
In many of the metals brought to the Magnet Lab, those free electrons behave strangely....
And researchers can't agree on why....
As an investigative tool, a magnetic field is analogous to temperature and pressure; it's something a scientist can control to change a material's properties....
"The field is like a big lever we use to induce significant changes in a material. With higher fields, we can align more spins and shift the electron's energy or momentum enough to disrupt some of the stronger electron interactions, such as electron pairing in high-temperature superconductors."
Those designs are works of functional art, highly optimized and consisting of multiple coils placed one inside the other like a set of Russian dolls....
...spearheading a new electromagnet design, the "single-turn," named for its single loop of copper. The single-turn has already produced pulsed fields as high as 240 teslas. The field lasts but a few millionths of a second, and then—the magnet explodes! Remarkably, the magnet's design allows a sample to survive the explosion intact.
