RIKEN physicists have discovered for the first time why the magnitude of the electron flow depends on direction in a special kind of magnet. This finding could help to realize future low-energy ...
A compass always points north—or does it? Magnets normally maintain a stable direction of magnetization, pointing from south ...
From time to time, the Earth's magnetic poles flip, leaving us without a protective magnetic field for up to centuries ...
All ferromagnetic materials have atomic magnetic moments that are aligned parallel to each other within small regions called domains. Within these domains, the spontaneous magnetization present is ...
You have a wire that is carring an AC current through a magnetic field caused by two magnets. The current flowing in the wire is in the X direction and the magnetic field is in the Y direction. In ...
Two different mechanisms are found to be responsible for the direction-dependent flow of electrons in chiral magnets Figure 1: The arrangement of electron spins in a chiral magnet resembles a spiral ...
