Florida State University researchers have created a new crystalline material with unusual magnetic patterns that could be used for breakthroughs in data storage and quantum technologies. Subscribe to ...

Magnetic skyrmions are stable quasi-particles that can be generated in (some) ferromagnetic materials with conceivable solutions in electronics, assuming they can be created and moved at will. The ...

Despite the fact that our universe is electrically neutral, atoms found throughout the universe can be positively charged nuclei or negatively charged electrons. When these charges accelerate, they ...

New computer simulations suggest the first magnetic fields that emerged after the Big Bang were much weaker than expected — ...
