Scientists have found that it’s possible to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation through its own magnetic field using a magnetic tube resting stationary on the planet’s surface. But before ...

The quantum Hall effect, a fundamental effect in quantum mechanics, not only generates an electric but also a magnetic current. It arises from the motion of electrons on an orbit around the nuclei of ...

Physicist Davide Bossini from the University of Konstanz demonstrates how to change the frequency of the collective magnetic oscillations of a material by up to 40% – using commercially available ...

For more than a century, engineers have chased new ways to turn the planet’s natural motions into usable power, from tides to ...

Recently, the research group led by Dr. WANG Junfeng at the High Magnetic Field Laboratory, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, revealed significant ...

Why there’s a need to assess current-flow distribution. How an arrangement was made for the measurement using a controlled magnetic field, laser-induced current flow, and a subtle physics-materials ...

In 1845, Michael Faraday discovered what’s known today as the Faraday Effect—which describes how light and electromagnetism are related. A new study revealed that the magnetic component of light ...
