A newly proposed quantum sensing technique could make it much easier to identify one of physics’ newest and most intriguing ...

The entry of quantum computers into society is currently hindered by their sensitivity to disturbances in the environment. Researchers from Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden, and Aalto ...

At nanokelvin temperatures — 100 billion times closer to absolute zero than room temperature — ultracold atoms are the coldest stuff in the known Universe. At such low temperatures, these quantum ...

Graphene coated with magnetic molecules shows gate-tunable, long-range magnetism while preserving mobility, pointing to ...

MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry "spintronic" memory chips. The new magnetic state is a mash-up ...

Individual atoms with an odd number of electrons have a magnetic moment from the spin of the unpaired electron. Materials consisting of elements with an even number of electrons—such as carbon, ...

Reaching out into the cosmos with invisible tendrils, magnetism is simultaneously otherwordly and mundane. These forces can pin a photo to your fridge or even billow off Earth’s poles to combat solar ...

Researchers at the University of Osaka have developed a quantum mechanical model for concentrated organic radical solutions ...

A fundamental property of magnetism has been disclosed through new research. The discovery may be key to development of a new generation of powerful computers. Our electronics can no longer shrink and ...

The properties of magnetism have puzzled and intrigued humanity for as long as its existence, but its origins are often associated with ancient Greece. Magnetism's earliest chronicler in Greece, the ...
