Observation of Landau energy levels in strained photonic crystal spectra. a, Experimentally measured band structure of the unstrained honeycomb pattern, showing the Dirac point b, Measured band structure of the …
The Earth is constantly bombarded by high-energy charged particles called cosmic rays. We are normally shielded from such attacks by Earth’s magnetic bubble, or magnetosphere. But what happens when this …
Temperature dependence of the spin current signal and magnon polarization above and below the magnetic compensation temperature.Image source: Minami Yusuke Spintronics has received widespread attention due to its range of …
A measured area in the sky. Left: A full-sky image of the polarized glow from dust seen at low resolution by ESA’s Planck satellite. This emission is a veil of …
New research reveals more clues about an extreme event that occurred on Earth 41,000 years ago, when the Earth’s magnetic field temporarily weakened, causing large amounts of cosmic rays to …
Scientists have discovered a new mechanism by which a concentrated laser beam can change the magnetic state of solid materials. The researchers say the discovery could one day be used …
A strange magnetic quasiparticle that looks like a tiny spinning bubble may one day be used as computing bits in future storage devices, after scientists accelerate it enough to transmit …
Schematic diagram of cooling caused by the anisotropic magnetic Thomson effect. Credit: Physical Review Letters (2023). DOI: 10.1103/PhysRevLett.131.206701 Japan’s National Institute of Materials Science (NIMS) has successfully directly observed the …
Earlier this month, a woman was killed by a shark while paddling in the Bahamas. CNN reports. deadly shark attack This phenomenon is extremely rare but remains a real concern …
