From galaxies to the Sun, new research explains how turbulent motion can produce large-scale magnetic fields that remain ...

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Remarkably, these experiments revealed that molybdenum ditelluride can exhibit superconductivity and magnetism at the same time. Since superconductivity usually relies on electron pairing that can be ...

Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem have overturned a 180-year-old scientific assumption, proving that the magnetic component of light plays a critical role in how light interacts with ...

MIT physicists have created a new ultrathin, two-dimensional material with unusual magnetic properties that initially ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism. This discovery is ...

All celestial bodies—planets, suns, even entire galaxies—produce magnetic fields, affecting such cosmic processes as the solar wind, high-energy particle transport, and galaxy formation. Small-scale ...
