Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...
This restless state, known as a quantum spin liquid, could unlock new kinds of particles and serve as a foundation for ...
In 1929, Ernest Orlando Lawrence invented the cyclotron: a compact, efficient particle accelerator that used magnets. Two ...
Remarkably, these experiments revealed that molybdenum ditelluride can exhibit superconductivity and magnetism at the same ...
When magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanners reach the end of their lifetime, hospitals have to deal with a large piece of electronic waste, stuffed with potentially dangerous parts. Unless a ...
Developing a quantum magnetism library: Group leader Wei Li. (Courtesy: Wei Li) Quantum spin liquid magnets are materials that cannot arrange their magnetic moments, or spins, in a regular, stable ...
