Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved oscillation ...

Magnets often harbour hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in ...

This could explain why some black holes are able to grow to millions or billions of times the mass of our sun. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s ...

An artificially colored view of Jupiter as seen in ultraviolet light. In addition to the Great Red Spot, which appears blue, another oval feature can be seen in the brown haze at Jupiter's south pole.

Just as electrons flow through an electrical conductor, magnetic excitations can travel through certain materials. Such excitations, known in physics as 'magnons' in analogy to the electron, could ...

Controlling this state paves the way for the creation of more intelligent, reconfigurable and energy-efficient devices that mimic the brain. The use of Big Data has multiplied the energy demand in ...

Analyzing magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution is a test-and-measurement challenge, but it’s important for both advanced physics insight as well as real-world products such as high-density ...
