Controlling magnetization dynamics with a femtosecond laser is attracting interest both in fundamental science and in industry because of the potential to achieve magnetic switching at ever faster ...

Altermagnets are a newly recognized class of antiferromagnets whose magnetic structure behaves very differently from what is ...

Electrons inherently carry both spin and orbital angular momentum (i.e., properties that help to understand the rotating motions and behavior of particles). While some physicists and engineers have ...

An international team of researchers led by Lancaster University has discovered a highly efficient mechanism for shaking ...

This magnetization can lead to a voltage perpendicular to the electric current even without an external magnetic field; this is the anomalous Hall effect. In contrast, antiferromagnets feature spins ...

Spintronics -- based on the principles of electron charge and magnetic spin -- goes beyond the limits of conventional electronics. However, spintronic devices are yet to see advances, because ...

The reliability of data storage and writing speed in advanced magnetic devices depend on drastic, complex changes in microscopic magnetic domain structures. However, it is extremely challenging to ...

Birds are the best-known example of creatures able to sense magnetic fields and to use them for orientation and navigation. Less well known are the magneto-sensing abilities of American cockroaches, ...

Spin flips: physicists have magnetized water by spinning it at high speeds. (Courtesy: Shutterstock/Inna Bigun) Physicists in the US have shown that rotating matter at high speeds can magnetize atomic ...

Background: Current models of obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) propose abnormalities of cortico-striatal circuits that involve the orbitofrontal cortex, anterior cingulate cortex, thalamus and the ...

TPU researchers have studied how rare earth elements (REEs) with different concentrations affect the formation and properties ...
