= Pinning points
{wiki=Pinning_points}
The term **"pinning points"** can refer to different concepts depending on the context in which it is used. Here are a few potential interpretations: 1. **Physics and Materials Science**: In the context of condensed matter physics, pinning points refer to defects or impurities within a material that can pin (or hold in place) certain types of excitations, such as magnetic flux lines in superconductors. These pinning points can impact the material's electrical and magnetic properties.
