Physicists have for the first time observed light drifting sideways in discrete, quantized steps, reproducing a quantum Hall effect that was previously seen only in electrons confined to ultra-thin ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...

Recently the MagQuest competition on improving the measuring of the Earth’s magnetic field announced that the contestants in the final phase have now moved on to launching their satellites within the ...

Spacecraft reentry environments lead to high magnetic Reynolds numbers, resulting in complex dynamics for magnetic flow ...

Recently, a research team found a new way to control the magnetic reversal in a special material called Co 3 Sn 2 S 2, a Weyl semimetal. The team was led by Prof. Qu Zhe from the Hefei Institutes of ...

When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...
