Large data centers rely on magnetic materials as data storage media, in which bits of information (i.e., "0" or "1") are encoded by the magnetization direction (i.e., "up" or "down"). The term "magnet ...

An MIT research team has observed a previously unseen form of magnetism, one that sits outside the familiar categories of ferromagnets and antiferromagnets. The discovery, termed p-wave magnetism, ...

Researchers used ultrathin van der Waals materials to create an electron magnet that can be switched at room temperature. This type of magnet could be used to build magnetic processors or memories ...

All ferromagnetic materials have atomic magnetic moments that are aligned parallel to each other within small regions called domains. Within these domains, the spontaneous magnetization present is ...

Researchers have observed directly and for the first time magnetoacoustic waves (sound-driven spin waves), which are considered as potential information carriers for novel computation schemes. These ...

The magnet is the characteristic substance that draws in the ferromagnetic material like iron or nickel by the force of attraction. Individuals depend on magnets for industrial and commercial use.

Free electron X-ray lasers deliver intense ultrashort pulses of x-rays, which can be used to image nanometer-scale objects in a single shot. When the x-ray wavelength is tuned to an electronic ...

In 2024, a new age of space exploration will begin when NASA sends astronauts to the moon as part of their Artemis mission, a follow-up to the Apollo missions of the 1960s and 1970s. Some of the ...
