We like to see people building things that are a little unusual, and we really like it when said unusual thing uses salvaged parts. This project from [JGJMatt] ticks all our boxes — the build creates ...

Scientists are eager to harness the unique electrical properties of topological magnets for advancing thermoelectric materials. A collaborative research group has successfully induced positive and ...

An Oklahoma Medical Research Foundation co-worker would like your opinion on the use of magnets to treat pain. In particular, she says her mother has gotten relief by using a magnet — I believe it’s ...

Researchers in California have created an incredibly small robot that needs no battery or wired power supply to zip through the air. Instead, it uses magnets to fly. A magnetic field produced by an ...

In a novel class of magnetic materials known as non-collinear antiferromagnets, researchers from Tohoku University and Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have revealed a representative effect ...

A change of location led to a surprising discovery during a routine magnet fishing trip. Using a 1500lb magnet, a large and unexpected object was recovered—raising questions about what else may be ...

The Pentagon is making a big investment in rare-earth magnets, striking an unusual deal with a private-sector company aimed at undercutting China’s dominance. MP Materials, America’s largest rare ...

China produces the entire world’s supply of samarium, a rare earth metal that the United States and its allies need to rebuild inventories of fighter jets, missiles and other hardware. By Keith ...
