Bizarre magnetic behavior that was predicted by a famous physicist more than 80 years ago has finally been demonstrated in the lab, according to a new study. The behavior of an electron in response to ...

Physicists in Europe and the US have developed a new technique for reversing the "core polarization" of the tiny magnetic whirlpools that exist in certain materials. The reversal, which can be ...

Physicists investigated an unusual arrangement of three magnetic "swirls" - so called magnetic vortices - in a thin magnetic film. Their experiments unraveled the dynamic core movements of these ...

From building transparent potato guns to discussing why scientists are burning astronaut pee (seriously), YouTube channel Smarter Every Day has long been demonstrating the many ways science is ...

Recently, observation of new topological magnetic structures represented by skyrmions is expected to provide new paths in constructing spintronic devices. In magnetic bubbles, although these are ...

(Nanowerk News) Magnetic sensors play a key role in a variety of applications, such as speed and position sensing in the automotive industry or in biomedical applications. Within the framework of the ...

A new simulation based on the von-Kármán-Sodium (VKS) dynamo experiment takes a closer look at how the liquid vortex created by the device generates a magnetic field. Researchers investigated the ...

A model based on the Von-Kármán-Sodium dynamo experiment investigates how turbulence and impeller material affect the magnetic field WASHINGTON, D.C., May 23, 2017 -- The massive, churning core of ...
