Researchers at the University of Illinois have discovered a surprising mathematical connection between two areas of condensed-matter physics that were long considered separate. The electronic and ...

Researchers from the Department of Physics and the University Institute of Materials at the University of Alicante (UA) and the Low Temperature and High Magnetic Field Laboratory at the Autonomous ...

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

Something massive is happening beneath your feet right now, and most people have absolutely no idea. Earth's magnetic field, the invisible force that protects all life on this planet and guides ...

Strange things happen to materials when you peel them down, layer by layer, from thick chunks all the way to sheets just an ...

Explore the fascinating physics behind current loop torque and how it interacts with magnetic fields in this detailed video! Learn how electric currents in loops generate forces and torques, ...

Researchers turned a paramagnetic material into a magnet by manipulating electrons' spin via atomic motion. Quantum materials hold the key to a future of lightning-speed, energy-efficient information ...

A subtle twist between atomically thin magnetic layers can generate unexpectedly large and complex spin structures.

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism. This discovery is ...

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 ...
