The Einstein-de Haas effect, first demonstrated more than a century ago, provides an intriguing link between magnetization and rotation in ferromagnetic materials. Researchers have now found that the ...

The Nature Index 2025 Research Leaders — previously known as Annual Tables — reveal the leading institutions and countries/territories in the natural and health sciences, according to their output in ...

The discovery of femtosecond laser-induced demagnetization in ferromagnetic nickel in 1996 marked the birth of ultrafast spin dynamics research. This phenomenon not only provides new insights into the ...

A team of researchers has now been able to follow the flow of angular momentum during ultrafast optical demagnetization in a ferrimagnetic iron-gadolinium alloy in great detail, in order to understand ...
