An experiment carried out at CERN's ISOLDE facility has determined the western shore of a small island of atomic nuclei, where conventional nuclear rules break down. Multiferroic materials, in which ...

Quantum mechanics has a reputation that precedes it. Virtually everyone who has bumped up against the quantum realm, whether in a physics class, in the lab, or in popular science writing, is left ...

No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...

A newly measured value of an electron’s magnetic moment 1 — a property of its spin and charge — is twice as precise as the one physicists have used for the past 14 years. The electron magnetic moment ...

In classical physics, a vacuum is a total void—a true manifestation of nothingness. But quantum physics says that empty space isn’t really empty. Instead, it’s buzzing with “virtual” particles ...

Beijing Zhongke Journal Publising Co. Ltd. This study is led by Dr. Zhaojin Rong (Institute of Geology and Geophysics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences). The magnetic field is the fundamental field in ...
