Scientists may have finally unlocked the unusual role quasiparticles known as "anyons" play in a pair of quantum experiments ...

Superconductivity and magnetism have long been treated as rivals in condensed matter physics, one thriving on perfect ...

In 1977, an American physicist named John H. Van Vleck won the Nobel Prize for his work on magnetism. In his Nobel lecture, ...

A discovery by physicists is unlocking a new understanding of magnetism and electronic interactions in cutting-edge materials, potentially revolutionizing technology fields such as quantum computing ...

In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence ...

Scientists have confirmed the existence of altermagnetism, a third fundamental form of magnetism that could revolutionize ...

Quantum researchers twist double bilayers of an antiferromagnet to demonstrate tunable moiré magnetism. Twistronics isn't a new dance move, exercise equipment, or new music fad. No, it's much cooler ...

In a study published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, theoretical physicists at MIT explained how ...

The muon’s mysteries continue to leave physicists spellbound. Last year, an experiment suggested that the elementary particle had inexplicably strong magnetism, possibly breaking a decades-long streak ...

Artificial intelligence has just cracked a problem that has frustrated condensed matter theorists for decades, turning a long-standing maze in frustrated magnet physics into a solved benchmark. By ...

A super-precise experiment at Fermilab is carefully analyzing every detail of the muon’s magnetic moment. Modern physics is full of the sort of twisty, puzzle-within-a-puzzle plots you’d find in a ...
