Alex Keshavarzi digs into the showdown between two competing Standard Model predictions of the muon, which may reveal undiscovered particles hiding in the vacuum ...

Quantum technology struggles with scaling up, as the special properties of quantum materials typically vanish in larger ...

Scientists report that a new class of magnetism, called altermagnetism, can increase memory device operation speeds by up to ...

"Ferromagnetism, where the magnetic moments, which you can picture like small compass arrows on the atomic scale, all point in the same direction. And antiferromagnetism, where the neighboring ...

T he magnetic moment of the muon is an important precision parameter for putting the Standard Model of particle physics to the test. After years of work, the research group led by Professor ...

An experiment in Sweden has demonstrated control over a novel kind of magnetism, giving scientists a new way to explore a ...

We’ve taken a stab at the basics of magnetism before, but to summarize, any charged particle, like an electron, has what’s known as an intrinsic magnetic moment, meaning they act like little ...

While ferromagnets have all their magnetic moments aligned in the same direction, antiferromagnets have magnetic moments that align in a regular pattern pointing in opposite directions ...

4 makes these methods suitable for precision measurements of nuclear magnetic moments. We have constructed an apparatus for this purpose, and have paid special attention to the problem of getting ...

Multiferroic materials, in which electric and magnetic properties are combined in promising ways, will be the heart of new ...
