For over 100 years, physicists, chemists, and materials scientists have developed extensive theoretical and experimental machinery to predict and characterize the electronic properties of magnetic ...

Georgetown University researchers have discovered a new class of strong magnets that do not rely on rare-earth or precious ...

X-rays are shone onto the magnetic material and the electrons given off from the surface are detected using a special microscope. This allows an image to be produced of the magnetism in the material ...

A Czech and Spanish-led research team has demonstrated the ability to distinguish subtle differences between magnetic ground ...

Researchers have developed a new class of magnets that does not require rare earths and platinum, yet offers high magnetic ...

“Magnets, how do they work?” asked Insane Clown Posse, a hip-hop duo, in their 2009 song “Miracles”. A flurry of recent papers suggests physicists did not quite have the full picture either. A new ...

Physicist Davide Bossini from the University of Konstanz demonstrates how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% – using commercially available ...

Researchers used epitaxial strain on ultra-thin ruthenium oxide layers to induce magnetism in a material typically known for being metallic but nonmagnetic. (Nanowerk News) In a new study, researchers ...
