Strong magnets tend to be large and power-hungry, but a new design has produced a powerful magnet that fits in the palm of your hand, making it more practical and affordable ...

A team of physicists has experimentally confirmed a long-predicted sequence of exotic magnetic phases in an atomically thin ...

Scientists at ETH Zurich have discovered a new type of magnetism. Experiments show that an artificially produced material becomes magnetic through a mechanism that hasn’t been seen before. The most ...

High-field magnets promise a double benefit: they can raise the pressure of the plasma, which boosts the fusion reaction rate, and they can shrink the overall size of the machine, which cuts cost and ...

To ensure seamless integration, CERN has built, in an above-ground test hall, a full-scale test stand called the Inner Triplet String (IT String), which mirrors the underground configuration ( CERN ...

Physicists at The University of Texas at Austin have experimentally confirmed a decades-old theory ...

A mysterious magnetic property of subatomic particles called muons hints that new fundamental particles may be lurking undiscovered. In a painstakingly precise experiment, muons’ gyrations within a ...
