Phonons are the collective vibrations that move through a solid. They can be thought of as waves traveling across the atomic ...
Like a shaggy dog in springtime, some black holes have to shed. New computer simulations reveal how black holes might discard their magnetic fields. Unlike dogs with their varied fur coats, isolated ...
Understand the magnetic field of two long wires with this detailed physics example! Learn how currents interact, how to calculate the resulting magnetic field, and visualize the principles behind ...
For a few brief nights each year, you get a rare chance to watch a monster blink. The Event Horizon Telescope collaboration ...
Deep inside the Milky Way, an invisible force is quietly holding everything together — its magnetic field. Now, researchers have created one of the most detailed maps ever of this hidden structure, ...
Explore the fascinating interaction between magnetism and electricity in Python Physics #34! In this video, we visualize how magnetic fields affect a current-carrying loop using Python simulations.
A subtle twist between atomically thin magnetic layers can generate unexpectedly large and complex spin structures.
In many quantum materials—materials with unusual electrical and magnetic properties driven by quantum mechanical effects—electrons can organize themselves into Landau levels. Landau levels are ...
Scientists have observed a new microscopic mechanism enabling precise control of the magneto-optical properties of excitons in alloys of two-dimensional semiconductors. This discovery opens up ...
An international team of researchers has shown that superconductivity can be modified by coupling a superconductor to a dark electromagnetic cavity. The research opens the door to the control of a ...
