A team of physicists has experimentally confirmed a long-predicted sequence of exotic magnetic phases in an atomically thin ...

Magnet technology has advanced, year-over-year, pulled by the desire of scientists for ever-higher magnetic fields. But progress has been paced by new developments in properties of materials needed to ...

AMES, Iowa – A tiny, solid sample of a drug, complete with active and inactive ingredients, spun at 50,000 revolutions per ...

It is not known when humans first noticed the attraction or repulsion between pieces of magnetic material. The first important device depending on these forces was the magnetic compass, which is ...

A team of researchers report a mechanical response across a layered magnetic material tied to changing its electron spin. This response could have important applications in nanodevices requiring ultra ...

China has set a new benchmark in extreme magnet science after researchers built the strongest all-superconducting user magnet ever. On Tuesday, the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced that a new ...
