The magnetic fields generated by spins and currents provide a unique window into the physics of correlated-electron materials and devices. First proposed only a decade ago, magnetometry based on the ...

Recent years have seen sustained progress in the generation of ever stronger magnetic fields for a range of purposes including basic 1 and high-energy physics 2, nuclear magnetic resonance 3 (NMR) and ...

Strong laser fields were supposed to be the cleanest way to watch electrons move, yet the latest experiments show that the vacuum itself can quietly reshape what those fields do. By flooding matter ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...

Physicists take on the big questions to discover how the universe works—from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Physicists experiment, observe, and analyze phenomena using mathematical ...
