Rechargeable batteries are everywhere—from portable electronic devices and electric vehicles to renewable energy storage.

Researchers have captured the first direct, momentum-resolved evidence that certain lattice vibrations carry measurable ...

Magnetic invisibility sounds simple in theory. Place the right materials around an object and magnetic fields flow around it as if nothing were there. Reality has been far messier. For nearly two ...

Nocturnal insects may use both Earth's magnetic field and visual cues to guide their migratory flight behaviors, according to recent findings. The research, published in eLife, presents compelling ...

AMES, Iowa – A tiny, solid sample of a drug, complete with active and inactive ingredients, spun at 50,000 revolutions per ...

Physicists in China have uncovered new evidence that chiral phonons and magnons can interact strongly inside magnetic crystals. Using neutron spectroscopy, a team led by Song Bao at Nanjing University ...

China achieves a superconducting magnet of 35.6 teslas, 700,000 times stronger than Earth's magnetic field, setting a world record.

Long-established in accelerator physics, bent crystals are now being explored as tools to measure the fundamental properties ...

The achievement marks a major milestone in extreme-conditions research and places China among the world’s leaders in high-temperature superconductor technology. The magnet is designed for shared ...

It is not known when humans first noticed the attraction or repulsion between pieces of magnetic material. The first important device depending on these forces was the magnetic compass, which is ...
