Historically, prior to 1820, electricity and magnetism were thought to be separate entities of nature. On April 21, 1820, ...

Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, ...

Researchers have demonstrated that spin waves oscillating at terahertz frequencies inside antiferromagnetic crystals can generate electrical voltage signals in adjacent metal layers, a result that ...

Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that ...

Explore 25 science experiments that defied the laws of physics, revealing mind-bending phenomena that challenge intuition.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have been asked to conduct a study on high-magnetic-field science and technology. The primary goal of the Committee on the Current Status ...
