Researchers have found the first new type of magnet in nearly a century. Now, these strange "altermagnets" could help us ...

Magnetism plays a crucial role in enabling various applications, ranging from memory storage devices to advanced medical imaging, energy-efficient electric motors, magnetic sensors, and emerging ...

More appear to be an example of human magnetism, no external magnetic field can be detected, and non-magnetic objects "stick" just as well. The phenomenon of variable skin stickiness is likely the ...

Magnetic anomalies abounded in the ancient natural world, where a lightning strike on a rock outcropping was much more likely than today. When hit by lightning, these rocks would undergo a process ...

The strength of Earth’s magnetic field and the amount of oxygen in its atmosphere seem to be correlated—and scientists want to know why ...

A puzzle over muons’ magnetic properties could have broken the standard model. But the theory bounced back.
