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

Physicists have designed an experiment to explain the concept of magnetic resonance. A versatile technique employed in chemistry, physics, and materials research, magnetic resonance describes a ...

Some of Earth's largest climate systems may collapse not with a bang, but with a whimper. Surprisingly, experiments with magnets are helping us understand how. Subscribe to our newsletter for the ...

Magnets, how do they work? Although the quantum mechanics behind ferromagnetism are by no means easy, a few simple experiments can give you a good grasp of how magnets attract and repel each other, ...

This activity is part of the Science Friday Sun Camp collection! The Sun generates an incredible amount of energy, energy that you can see and feel as light and heat. Other forms of energy from the ...
