Deep in Chile’s Atacama Desert, scientists studied a green crystal called atacamite—and discovered it can cool itself ...

The research team has identified atacamite as a material with magnetocaloric properties. Natural crystals have long ...

Natural crystals fascinate with their vibrant colors, their nearly flawless appearance and their manifold symmetrical forms.

Magnetic-superconducting hybrid systems are key to unlocking topological superconductivity, a state that could host Majorana ...

All quarks and leptons – such as electrons and muons – have a magnetic moment due to their intrinsic angular momentum or “spin”. Quantum theory dictates that the magnetic moment is related to the spin ...

The magnetic moment of Fe increased by 1.44-fold and Ir by 1.54-fold at 11 at% Ir concentration compared to that at 1 at% Ir ...

If the predicted magnetic moment doesn’t match up with what’s seen in experiments, the discrepancy could be a clue that there are undiscovered virtual particles at play.

The team determined the electron magnetic moment to 0.13 parts per trillion, or 0.000000000013 percent. A measurement that exacting is a complicated task.

After six years of collecting data, the muon g-2 experiment released its results and could chart a new path for particle physics.

Determining lepton magnetic moments, both theoretically and experimentally, represents a pinnacle of scientific achievement. The electron's magnetic moment is now known to 11 significant digits ...
