A gyromagnetic effect discovered by Albert Einstein and Dutch physicist Wander Johannes de Haas--the rotation of an object caused by a change in magnetization--has been measured at micrometer-scale ...

A new framework for understanding the nonmonotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

A laser trick in nanometer-thin magnets hints at faster storage and computing without exotic laboratory conditions ...

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved oscillation ...

In a twist befitting the strange nature of quantum mechanics, physicists have discovered the Hall effect -- a characteristic change in the way electricity is conducted in the presence of a magnetic ...

Magnon frequency combs may make it possible to link and interact with a wide range of physical systems, opening new pathways ...

Scientists have shown that Barkhausen noise can be produced not only through traditional, or classical means, but through quantum mechanical effects. The research represents an advance in fundamental ...

Magnets tuned with lasers at room temperature could lead to faster hard drives and a new generation of computer chips.

This activity is part of the Science Friday Sun Camp collection! The Sun generates an incredible amount of energy, energy that you can see and feel as light and heat. Other forms of energy from the ...
