A new study, published in Physical Review Letters, reports that scientists have successfully imaged the formation of ...

In their research, Hasenfratz, Catterall, and Butt used renormalization group (RG) theory to study the more complex phase ...

Researchers found friction can occur without contact, driven by magnetic dynamics, and does not always increase with load. The effect could enable controllable, wear-free technologies.

A new theoretical framework reveals why magnetoelectric nanoparticles behave unpredictably and how their nonlinear physics ...

When load increases steadily, so does friction, but in the realm of magnetization dynamics, things aren’t so simple.

From smartphones to supercomputers, almost all our daily electronics run on the flow of "electron charge." But did you know?
