In a chilled lab where temperatures drop close to absolute zero, a speck of magnet hovers in place. This tiny magnet, ...

One of those investigations involved a distinctive deep dive into studying the interior of the moon.

The research team has identified atacamite as a material with magnetocaloric properties. Natural crystals have long ...

Though gold and diamonds are precious materials, they're nowhere near the most expensive thing in the universe. In fact, the ...

“The anomalous magnetic moment, or g–2, of the muon is important because it provides a sensitive test of the Standard Model of particle physics. This is an exciting result and it is great to see an ...

Scientists have measured the magnetic moment of the muon to unprecedented precision, more than doubling the previous record. Physicists from the Muon g-2 Collaboration cycled muons, known as ...

Spin one-half moments on a square lattice. In addition to the classical antiferromagnetic order (classical AF), the spin moments can have various magnetic ground states, such as superposition of ...

If the predicted magnetic moment doesn’t match up with what’s seen in experiments, the discrepancy could be a clue that there are undiscovered virtual particles at play.

The anomalous magnetic dipole moment is an amazing testbed for the standard model. And it is interesting for all the charged leptons: electrons, muons, and tau particles.

Elementary particles are the smallest known building blocks of the universe. They are thought to have no internal structure, meaning that researchers think about them as zero-dimensional points ...
