Materials with magnetic nanostructures have a wide range of potential applications. One area is so-called spintronics, with ...

Scientists at Penn State and Saint Louis University have demonstrated that a magnetic quantum ...

Magnetic storage devices, like a computer's hard disk drive, utilize magnets to represent binary data. However, as these ...

Magnetic micro-flowers concentrate applied magnetic fields around samples, allowing high-field nanoscale imaging and ...

A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...

Migratory birds are known for their ability to traverse thousands of kilometers to reach their breeding or wintering grounds. Research by Bangor University found that these birds, in this case, ...

Atomic physicists “are jacks of all trades,” according to Alex Sushkov. “You have to have the idea, design the experiment, build the experiment, run the experiment, fix everything, take data, analyze ...

Fast radio bursts could become the most versatile tools in cosmology: astronomer Manisha Caleb argues in a new preprint that ...

Pigeons and other birds can do it. So can sea turtles and spiny lobsters, moths and mole rats, gray whales and big brown bats. Many members of the animal kingdom can detect the subtle undulations of ...

The development of new technologies drives scientific discoveries, the development of new materials and their applications and is thereby essential to the U.S. leadership in the global competitive ...
