Researchers have observed three-dimensional magnetic vortex rings in a real-world magnetic material for the first time. Contrary to theoretical predictions, these rings – which are spin configurations ...

Three-dimensional magnetic vortices have been discovered by scientists from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany together with colleagues from the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland ...

Magnets often harbour hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in ...

Just as electrons flow through an electrical conductor, magnetic excitations can travel through certain materials. Such excitations, known in physics as "magnons" in analogy to the electron, could ...

Magnon frequency combs may make it possible to link and interact with a wide range of physical systems, opening new pathways ...

Controlling this state paves the way for the creation of more intelligent, reconfigurable and energy-efficient devices that mimic the brain. The use of Big Data has multiplied the energy demand in ...

Analyzing magnetic nanostructures with a high resolution is a test-and-measurement challenge, but it’s important for both advanced physics insight as well as real-world products such as high-density ...

Our body’s neural cell responses do not depend solely on electrical and chemical stimuli, which are relatively easier for analysis. Scientists have often found difficulty in studying the body’s neural ...
