China has set a new benchmark in extreme magnet science after researchers built the ...

The original version of this story appeared in Quanta Magazine. All the magnets you have ever interacted with, such as the tchotchkes stuck to your refrigerator door, are magnetic for the same reason.

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Inside the cores of ice giant planets, the pressure and temperature are so extreme that the water residing there transitions ...

China has quietly crossed a threshold in magnet technology that most people will never see but many will eventually feel. By ...

This shifts our entire perspective on what makes a planet “Earth-like.” Nature is far more creative than our own solar system suggests. The universe might be teeming with “magma-shielded” worlds that ...

In May, the most powerful geomagnetic storm to strike Earth in more than two decades lit up night skies in many parts of the world - Copyright AFP/File Sanka ...

Muons might not behave as expected. But scientists can’t agree on what to expect. By taking stock of how the subatomic particles wobble in a magnetic field, physicists have pinned down a property of ...

One of the most pervasive and mysterious phenomena in the universe is magnetism. As the scientist knows it, magnetism is the invisible pull that surrounds magnets, electric currents and even the ...

As global industries accelerate toward higher efficiency, cleaner production, and intelligent automation, magnetic technology is increasingly recognized as a critical enabler rather than a supporting ...
