A new spintronic phenomenon: Chiral-spin rotation found in non-collinear antiferromagnet
Researchers at Tohoku University and the Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) have discovered a new spintronic phenomenon—a persistent rotation of chiral-spin structure......»»
Researchers image magnetic behavior at the smallest scales to date
Permanent magnets, the kind found on refrigerators everywhere, exist because their constituent atoms behave as miniature magnets. They align and combine to form the larger magnet in a phenomenon called ferromagnetism. There are some materials where t.....»»

Study explores how QAnon went from fringe to mainstream on Twitter
QAnon's journey from a fringe phenomenon in 2017 to a mainstream presence on Twitter represents an evolution that arrived by tapping into an interconnected media system, according to a recently published paper by a University at Buffalo communication.....»»
Aboriginal art and knowledge unlock mystery of fairy circles
Fairy circles—barren patches which make polka-dot patterns in dry and desert areas—were first described by scientists in Namibia in the 1970s, sparking global debate about the phenomenon......»»
New discovery could hold the key to healthy aging during global warming
Researchers have long known that many animals live longer in colder climates than in warmer climates. New research in C. elegans nematode worms suggests that this phenomenon is tied to a protein found in the nervous system that controls the expressio.....»»
Bizarre Quantum Tunneling Observation Throws Out All the Rules
The strange phenomenon of quantum tunneling has been observed in a chemical reaction that defies classical physics.....»»
Now we know how a solar storm took out a fleet of Starlinks
On March 23, sky observers marveled at a gorgeous display of northern and southern lights. It was reminder that when our sun gets active, it can spark a phenomenon called "space weather." Aurorae are among the most benign effects of this phenomenon......»»
Mathematical model provides bolt of understanding for lightning-produced X-rays
In the early 2000s, scientists observed lightning discharge producing X-rays comprising high energy photons—the same type used for medical imaging. Researchers could recreate this phenomenon in the lab, but they could not fully explain how and why.....»»
A new model predicts the flexibility of DNA movement at the molecular scale
In both physics and chemistry, the mesoscopic scale refers to the length scale on which the properties of a material or phenomenon can be studied, without entering into a discussion about the behavior of individual atoms. In a mesoscopic model, atomi.....»»
Asteroid Didymos May Spin So Fast It Flings Rocks into Space
The asteroid Didymos witnessed its companion get slammed by NASA’s DART spacecraft, and Didymos itself may have interesting activity.....»»
Shining a light on the mechanics of embryo development
In 1922, French physicist Léon Brillouin predicted an interesting phenomenon—when light is shone on a material, it interacts with the naturally occurring thermal vibrations within it, exchanging some energy in the process. This, in turn, influence.....»»
Light-bending gravity reveals one of the biggest black holes ever found
A team of astronomers has discovered one of the biggest black holes ever found, taking advantage of a phenomenon called gravitational lensing......»»
Storing information with spins: Creating new structured spin states with spatially structured polarized light
Light is composed of electric and magnetic fields that oscillate perpendicular to each other. When these oscillations are restricted, say, along a plane, it results in polarized light. Polarized light is of great importance in optical communications,.....»»
We now know what caused comet ‘Oumuamua’s strange orbit
It wasn't aliens that sent an interstellar comet to visit our solar system. The explanation is a phenomenon called outgassing......»»
Novel probe helps to detect deep sea biological macromolecules
The phenomenon of chemically synthesized life in extreme deep-sea environment is an international research hotspot in deep-sea science and life science. However, due to the extremely low concentration of organic macromolecules such as extracellular m.....»»
North Sea cod are getting smaller—can we reverse that?
Fishing wreaks havoc on North Sea cod evolution; long-term planning can help. Enlarge (credit: Anton Petrus) Generation over generation, catch after catch, fishing changes fish evolution. This phenomenon, called fisherie.....»»
2024 Dodge Hornet injects attitude into luxury crossover base
Dodge designers used the Alfa Romeo Tonale as a foundation and gave it an aggressive spin with inspiration from the sporty Challenger, Charger and Durango......»»
Qubits put new spin on magnetism: Boosting applications of quantum computers
Research using a quantum computer as the physical platform for quantum experiments has found a way to design and characterize tailor-made magnetic objects using quantum bits, or qubits. That opens up a new approach to develop new materials and robust.....»»
