Skyrmions, in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation ...

For the first time in nearly a century, physicists have identified a brand new type of magnetic material. Crack open a physics textbook and you may read that scientists classify magnetic materials ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

Collaboration to Deliver Superconducting Magnets up to 30 Tesla Through this partnership with the MagLab, Quantum ...

(Nanowerk News) Not all magnets are the same. When we think of magnetism, we often think of magnets that stick to a refrigerator’s door. For these types of magnets, the electronic interactions that ...

A theoretical study posted to arXiv in early 2026 argues that magnetic skyrmions, tiny whirlpool-like spin textures inside ...

A new initiative is emerging at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), the U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory managed by Princeton University. Under the direction of principal ...

Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...

The bizarre properties of discrete time crystals could be harnessed to detect extremely subtle oscillations of magnetic ...

Physicists weren’t sure why Moon rocks brought back during the Apollo missions are more strongly magnetized than models ...
