Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, ...
Magnets are a crucial technology in our modern life. There are magnets in pretty much all electronics, most household ...
Engineers have discovered an unexpected link between two very different realms of physics: the behavior of electrons in ...
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 ...
Magnet technology has advanced, year-over-year, pulled by the desire of scientists for ever-higher magnetic fields. But progress has been paced by new developments in properties of materials needed to ...
One of the most pervasive and mysterious phenomena in the universe is magnetism. As the scientist knows it, magnetism is the invisible pull that surrounds magnets, electric currents and even the ...
