Engineers create world's smallest wireless flying robot
Like a bumblebee flitting from flower to flower, a new insect-inspired flying robot created by engineers at the University of California, Berkeley, can hover, change trajectory and even hit small ...
Researchers propose a simple magnetic switch using altermagnets
Controlling magnetism in a device is not easy; unusually large magnetic fields or lots of electricity are needed, which are ...
Applying a magnetic field to rod-like viruses induces them to form disks of tunable shape and size
Seeking to mimic self-assembly processes that occur naturally, RIKEN researchers have demonstrated that the self-assembly of ...

Experiment Generates Current from Earth's Magnetic Field
S cientists have found that it’s possible to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation through its own magnetic field ...
Jets from powerful black holes can point astronomers toward where − and where not − to look for life in the universe
Magnetic fields twist around the black hole as it rotates to store energy – kind of like when you pull and twist a rubber band. When you release the rubber band, it snaps forward. Similarly, the ...
