There is now a new addition to the magnetic family: thanks to experiments at the Swiss Light Source SLS, researchers have proved the existence of altermagnetism. The experimental discovery of this new ...

In Baltimore, people are gathering trash, treasure and new friends from the bank of the Chesapeake Bay. They're fishing with high-powered magnets. In Baltimore, some residents are finding a novel way ...

Ferrimagnets are a special type of magnet where different atoms' magnetic moments partially cancel each other out, creating a ...

This holiday season, there's a huge safety risk inside a tiny package. Small, high-powered magnets are making a comeback, and can be found on store shelves and retailers online. These types of magnets ...

Scientists have discovered a long-predicted magnetic state of matter called an antiferromagnetic excitonic insulator -- broadly speaking, a novel type of magnet. Understanding the connections between ...

Scientists used Lorentz transmission electron microscopy (LTEM) to visualize topological defects. They were able to do so by passing electrons and observing their deflections through a thin magnetic ...

Tiny super-strong rare-earth magnets sold as toys were banned several years ago, but now some of them are back on the market landing kids in the emergency room. The Troubleshooters have warned you ...

We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. The first person to discover a magnetic rock must've believed that magic was to blame. Knowing what we know about magnets now, they're still ...
