Rare-earth magnets are essential for electric motors in vehicles, drones, and trains, forming the backbone of modern, ...

Atomic scale copper rich layers inside rare earth magnets suppress demagnetization, improving strength, stability, and efficiency in motors and generators.

An international research team within the DFG Collaborative Research Center SFB/TRR 270 “HoMMage”, has published new findings on more efficient permanent magnets in the prestigious journal Nature ...

Imagine shining a flashlight into a material and watching the light bend backward—or in an entirely unexpected direction—as ...

Which magnetic building block sets are best? Magnetic building block sets accomplish something that very few toys marketed as educational can actually accomplish: they’re as much fun as they are ...

Astronomers have discovered powerful magnetic fields steering gas, dust, and star formation in a dramatic galaxy merger.

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Scientists have demonstrated that light alone can reversibly control magnetism in a topological material. Researchers at the University of Basel and ETH Zurich have found a way to flip the magnetic ...

Researchers have uncovered how atoms subtly rearrange themselves for up to a trillionth of a second before releasing low-energy electrons after X-ray excitation.

A magnet fishing trip at a popular lake took a serious turn when two separate guns were pulled from the water within minutes of each other. Police were called to the scene, and officers noted that ...

Magnet fishing usually pulls up scrap and small relics, but this time we dragged up something incredible a 200-year-old cannon. It was almost impossible to believe what we had uncovered. The discovery ...

There are now breakaway connectors with power meters built in, and while these meters are only accurate to 0.1 resolution for amps, volts, and watts, they're fine for checking whether something is ...
