Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In ...

Shoppers use them in dark pantries, closets, utility rooms, and more. If you’ve ever renovated a kitchen, you know that adding under-cabinet lighting costs a pretty penny. After my recent remodel, ...

Professor Amir Capua, head of the Spintronics Lab within the Institute of Applied Physics and Electrical Engineering at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, announced a pivotal breakthrough in the realm of ...

Sports enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers looking for a quick way to add light to their helmets may be interested in a new flashlight and magnetic helmet light created by a team of engineers based in ...

Scientists have used light to visualize magnetic domains, and manipulated these regions using an electric field, in a quantum antiferromagnet. This method allows real-time observation of magnetic ...

Like most planets in our solar system, the Earth has its own magnetic field. Thanks to its largely molten iron core, our planet is, in fact, a bit like a bar magnet. It has a north and south magnetic ...

Many cyclists have a love-hate relationship with bike lights. On the one hand, they increase safety in low-light conditions and allow riders to see the trail or road after dark. On the other hand, ...

The short answer is that only charged particles like electrons or protons are bent when travelling through magnetic fields. Electromagnetic radiation is made up of uncharged photons, so is unaffected.
