Most magnets have two poles: north and south, or positive and negative, in a familiar arrangement called a "dipole." But ...

For decades, scientists have puzzled over why magnetic reconnection seems to occur at nearly the same speed in vastly different regions of space.

Ph.D. student, Alfred Dal Din, has been exploring altermagnets for the last two years. This is yet another breakthrough that he has seen during his project. He comments, "To be among the first to see ...

Scientists in Japan have confirmed that ultra-thin films of ruthenium dioxide belong to a newly recognized and powerful class of magnetic materials called altermagnets. These materials combine the ...

A new review highlights exciting progress in atomically thin quantum materials where light and magnetism work together in ways never before possible. In these materials, light-generated excitons can ...

Magnetic reconnection is a process that occurs when the magnetic fields of a conductive plasma quickly rearrange and release massive amounts of stored magnetic energy. It is widely thought to be the ...
