A subtle twist between atomically thin magnetic layers can generate unexpectedly large and complex spin structures.

Earth’s magnetic field does not simply switch direction like a flipped light switch. It weakens, wanders, and reorganizes ...

Twisting atomically thin magnetic layers does more than reshape their electronics—it can create giant, topological magnetic textures. In chromium triiodide, researchers observed skyrmion-like patterns ...

Exploring power output in a magnetic loop using Faraday’s law and understanding how changing magnetic fields generate electrical energy. Learn the fundamental principles of electromagnetic induction, ...

Samples from Ryugu, a small, near-Earth asteroid, preserve natural remanent magnetization (NRM) from the early history of the solar system. However, despite multiple studies, there is currently no ...

To uncover the history of our solar system, it is necessary to study the dynamic evolution of the ancient solar nebula materials. These materials ...

Physicist Paul Davies looks back at the past century of quantum mechanics—the most disruptive theory in the history of modern science.

A wafer-thin flake of bismuth telluride can act a little like a one-way street for electricity, even when the push comes from ...

Conventional crystals are materials in which atoms arrange themselves in repeating spatial patterns. Time crystals, on the other hand, are phases of matter characterized by repeating motions over time ...

Proxima Fusion, a Munich-based nuclear energy startup, has outlined plans to raise about €2 billion to build a major fusion test facility in Germany that could be a milestone on the path to ...

Like many scientists, theoretical physicist Andrew Strominger was unimpressed with early attempts at probing ChatGPT, receiving clever-sounding answers that didn't stand up to scrutiny. So he was ...
