Electrons in a magnetic field can display striking behaviors, from the formation of discrete energy levels to the quantum ...

Long before galaxies sparkled in the sky or stars took shape, invisible forces stirred in the early Universe. One of those ...

The transverse Thomson effect is observed for the first time: current, heat, and magnetic fields generate controlled cooling ...

Researchers from Japan have discovered a unique Hall effect resulting from deflection of electrons due to "in-plane ...

This persnickety number determines the strength of magnetic fields. It figures in everything from motors and generators to audio speakers. Oh, and without it we’d live in eternal darkness.

Event Horizon Telescope observations capture evolving polarization patterns around the supermassive black hole at the center ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time ...

Newly released images of the supermassive black hole at the heart of the galaxy M87 show that the plasma that swirls around ...

Graphene is stronger than steel and a better conductor that copper, making the two-dimensional material of particular ...

As a result of the tetrahedral symmetry of the lattice, a diamond crystal typically contains NV centers in four orientations.

Their results pave the way for developing advanced electronic devices that rely on nonmagnetic materials. For the first time, researchers in Japan have detected a giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) in ...
