Scientists have discovered a rare form of one-dimensional quantum magnetism in a metallic compound called Ti4MnBi2, marking a ...

A mysterious menagerie of quantum states — once purely theoretical — has been brought to life by researchers at Columbia ...

What started as a normal magnet fishing day quickly turned serious when we pulled something out of the water that looked ...

What we thought would be another chill day of magnet fishing turned into something straight out of a crime drama. When we pulled up what looked like real murder evidence, we had no choice but to call ...

Most meteorites are small — pebble-sized or smaller — chunks of rocky material that, in most cases, get buried in the soil or ...

"Magnetar birth rates and formation scenarios are among the most pressing questions in high-energy astrophysics." ...

Such molecules would be suited to acting as quantum bits, or qubits, the basic unit of information in quantum systems. But ...

In a new study published on April 3 in Nature, researchers added over a dozen states to the growing quantum zoo. "Some of these states have never been seen before," said lead author Xiaoyang Zhu, ...

During a brief but dramatic chapter in Earth's history about 41,000 years ago, the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed.

NASA researchers suggest a surprising discovery on planet Mercury: a diamond layer approximately 10 miles thick, adding to ...

That's because astronomers have discovered that this magnetar, which is a special type of highly magnetic neutron star, wasn't actually born in a nearby supernova as previously theorized.
