We are constantly immersed in magnetic fields. The Earth produces a field that envelops us. Toasters, microwaves, and all of our other appliances produce their own faint ones. All of these fields are ...
Magnetic micropillar arrays consist of tiny, vertical pin-shaped structures, arranged in a grid-like pattern. These micropillars can change their shape to a pre-programmed geometry when exposed to a ...
New research shows that the magnetic part of light actively shapes how light interacts with matter, challenging a ...
Permanent magnets play a crucial role in medicine due to its field strength, tunability of field and gradient distributions, as well as practical implementation. In a new study published in KeAi ...

Pigeons Rely on the Earth’s Magnetic Field to Navigate. Now, Researchers May Have Uncovered How They Do It
In the late 1800s, the French naturalist Camille Viguier proposed an idea that would be dismissed and forgotten for more than ...
A long time ago, tiny crystals formed in seafloor mud and held onto secrets that would puzzle scientists for decades. These ...
Scientists are pursuing the proposition of clean and inexhaustible power from nuclear fusion through a variety of experimental reactor designs, and one of the more interesting examples is a roughly ...
When you look at photos from Apollo missions you may feel a mix of pride and wonder. When University of Oxford geologist Claire Nichols gazes at them, she feels something else: frustration. There are ...
In other tests, the team carefully controls the magnetic fields in different areas to guide the robots through obstacle courses by crawling along the ground, jumping over moats, climbing walls, and ...
