The dangers associated with space travel are uncountable, but an array of powerful permanent magnets may solve one of the ...

Physicists at RIKEN have demonstrated how ultrafast, low-power-consumption memory devices could be realized by replacing conventional magnetic materials with novel ones. In conventional hard disk ...

When it comes to telescope mirrors, larger is generally better. The larger your main mirror, the more light you can capture and the more faint and distant objects you can see. The problem is that ...

From cell phones to wind turbines and missile defense systems, modern technologies depend on critical minerals like rare earth elements. As demand grows, researchers are exploring more efficient and ...

Permanent magnets sit at the heart of the green economy, from wind turbines and electric vehicles to smartphones and industrial robots. For decades, the strongest versions have depended on rare-earth ...
