Magnets tuned with lasers at room temperature could lead to faster hard drives and a new generation of computer chips.

Gravitational wave detectors, such as LIGO, have revolutionized astronomy, but only within a narrow frequency range. Now, physicists have found a way to dramatically widen that range using something ...

In 1929, Ernest Orlando Lawrence invented the cyclotron: a compact, efficient particle accelerator that used magnets. Two ...

Researchers demonstrate how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% by ...
