Superconductivity and magnetism have long been treated as rivals in condensed matter physics, one thriving on perfect ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism. This discovery is ...

Magnetism and superconductivity are often thought to be incompatible with each other. However, Martin Lange and colleagues from the Catholic University of Leuven in Belgium have now shown that a ...

Scientists have confirmed the existence of altermagnetism, a third fundamental form of magnetism that could revolutionize ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have discovered a new type of magnetism. Experiments show that an artificially produced material becomes magnetic through a mechanism that hasn’t been seen before. The most ...

Magnets have a north pole and a south pole. Two of the same pole will repel each other, while opposites attract. Only certain materials, especially those that contain iron, can be magnets. And there’s ...

Libor Šmejkal has a fondness for the artwork of M. C. Escher, whose work was often inspired by mathematics. One of Šmejkal’s favourite pieces is Horseman, a striking picture that features an elaborate ...

Artificial intelligence has just cracked a problem that has frustrated condensed matter theorists for decades, turning a long-standing maze in frustrated magnet physics into a solved benchmark. By ...

Metal and magnetism; light and darkness; as well as sound and silence all come into play at the Takis exhibition at the Tate Modern, as Rachel Brazil discovers From July to October this year, 70 of ...
