Angular momentum is a fundamental quantity in physics that describes the rotational motion of objects. In quantum physics, it ...

Did you know Earth's magnetic field is on the move? Recent studies reveal it's shifting at an astonishing rate—10 times ...

Scientists at TU Delft have unlocked a key quantum effect in graphene without using any magnetic fields, paving the way for ...

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

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. David Bressan is a geologist who covers curiosities about Earth.

External magnetic fields have been used to vertically align ensembles of silicon microwires coated with ferromagnetic nickel films. X-ray diffraction and image analysis techniques were used to ...

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection ...

You can test stir bar behaviour by filming through the side of a vial or using a magnetic material (nickel or iron granules) ...

And that’s exactly what happened, at least some of the time. When the young sharks were exposed to the magnetic field of the place they were caught, off Florida’s Gulf Coast, they swam in ...

A method is presented for controlling the field-directed self-assembly of colloidal magnetic core–shell nanoparticles into three-dimensional (3D) crystalline superstructures with nanoscale feature ...

Single-sided Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) devices enable easy imaging of areas outside the MPI device, allowing objects of any size to be imaged and improving clinical applicability. However, ...
