Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...
As someone who studies materials, Lu Li knows people want to hear about the exciting new applications and technologies his discoveries could enable. Sometimes, though, what he finds is just too weird ...
Deep in Chile’s Atacama Desert, scientists studied a green crystal called atacamite—and discovered it can cool itself dramatically when placed in a magnetic field. Unlike a regular fridge, this effect ...

Researchers have demonstrated that qubits (represented by the spheres and arrows) can "talk" to each other through a magnet (represented by the rectangular solid) rather than through air. This ...
Researchers at CERN may be on the verge of explaining the universe’s missing gamma rays and hidden magnetic fields.
The engineering of optically synthesized magnetic fields allows neutral atoms to emulate charged behavior, paving the way for ...
A tiny wobbling particle may be about to reveal a fifth force of nature, scientists behind one of the biggest particle physics experiments say. Physicists at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory, ...
