For almost 100 years, scientists believed there were only two main types of magnets. One is the familiar ferromagnet, the ...

Scientists have observed a completely new type of magnetic structure for the first time by using extremely short laser ...

Today's computers store information using only two values: 0 and 1. But as electronic devices become smaller and reach their ...

Flashes of femtosecond laser light, lasting just a few trillionths of a second, have made it possible to observe new magnetic ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) A material used to store information must satisfy a demanding bargain. It has to keep its state when the power is off, resist noise from its surroundings, and still change when a ...

The research team built a controlled experimental system consisting of two parallel magnetic layers: a two-dimensional array of tiny rotatable magnets on the top and a fixed magnetic substrate with a ...

Physicists have discovered a much faster approach to create a pattern of spins in a magnet. This 'shortcut' opens a new chapter in topology research. Interestingly, this discovery also offers an ...

New research suggests giant structures beneath Earth's mantle significantly influence the planet's magnetic field over long periods. These Large Low-Shear Velocity Provinces (LLSVPs) affect heat ...
