Artificial intelligence is colliding with a hard physical limit: the energy and heat of conventional chips. As models scale ...

Patterning magnetic landscapes has recently emerged as a powerful avenue to achieve new functionalities in existing materials. In our recent ...

An international team of researchers led by Lancaster University has discovered a highly efficient mechanism for shaking magnets using very short light pulses, shorter than a trillionth of a second.

Researchers created a new quantum state of matter, dubbed a higher-order topological magnet, that may address key issues in quantum technology. When different quantum states combine, new collective ...

Using a diamond needle tipped with a single electron, physicists have found seemingly impossible one-sided magnets swirling along the surface of hematite. The rules of physics (the ones we know of, ...

Creating strong permanent magnets without using so-called rare earth elements is an ongoing topic of research. An interesting contestant here are iron nitride magnets (α”-Fe 16 N 2), which have the ...

Individual atoms can be affected by magnetic fields, and strong fields can induce nausea, but it isn’t clear if there are discernible effects at the cellular level. We are diamagnetic, which means we ...
