'Soft robots,' medical devices and implants, and next-generation drug delivery methods could soon be guided with magnetism -- thanks to a metal-free magnetic gel developed by researchers. Carbon-based ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent six days a week. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. For scientists and dreamers alike, one of the greatest hopes for a ...

Magnets are everywhere in our daily lives, even if we don’t always notice them. From holding up notes on the fridge to powering complex machines, magnetism plays a crucial role in technology, science, ...

The rules about what makes a good magnet may not be as rigid as scientists thought. Using a mixture containing magnetic nanoparticles, researchers have now created liquid droplets that behave like ...

The breakthrough has occurred at the Regional Centre of Advanced Technologies and Materials (RCPTM), which is located at Palacký University Olomouc. The basis of the breakthrough is with an ultra-thin ...

Magnetism transforms a weird new material from soft to rigid in a split second. This metamaterial — a synthetic structure designed to behave in ways that natural materials don’t — comprises a gridlike ...

For the first time, scientists have imaged an entirely new form of magnetism called altermagnetism. The researchers used cutting-edge x-ray techniques to visualize and fine-tune this novel magnetic ...

Scientists have created “soft” magnets that can flow and change shape, and that could be a boon to medicine and robotics. By Knvul Sheikh Lodestone, a naturally-occurring iron oxide, was the first ...

A researcher in New Jersey says he had a nuclear fusion breakthrough while helping his son with a science project. He realized he could explore which kinds of permanent magnets could be powerful and ...

Scientists have succeeded in simulating the magnetization reversal of Nd-Fe-B magnets using large-scale finite element models constructed based on tomographic data obtained by electron microscopy.
