A solution proposed by a team of scientists at the North Carolina State University is a metamaterial that can change shape in response to magnetic fields. This material had to be easily deformable ...
(Credit: Yanik Chauvin/Shutterstock) The north magnetic pole, located closer to Canada a century ago, is now on its way toward Siberia. Right on time for the surge of holiday travel, a new iteration ...
We put Magnet kitchens through our rigorous lab tests to see how they perform compared to other popular brands such as Wren and Wickes. But to find out whether Magnet really is a good kitchen brand, ...
The entire process is energy intensive, costly, and risks contaminating local water. Magnetic strength in the magnets used in electric motors is measured in tesla (where 1 tesla = 10,000 Gauss ...
It's time to recalibrate the navigation systems on ships, airplanes, and (given the time of year) Santa's sleigh: the position of the magnetic North Pole is officially being changed, continuing its ...
The needle of a compass has guided humanity for centuries, pointing unerringly toward the magnetic north. But what happens when that point moves — and accelerates? This week, scientists unveiled ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive biomedical imaging technique that uses a strong oscillating magnetic field to induce endogenous atoms such as hydrogen, or exogenously added ...
The researchers used cutting-edge x-ray techniques to visualize and fine-tune this novel magnetic material, which is very different from the kind of magnets we know in day-to-day life. Their ...
