The potential of quantum technology is huge but is today largely limited to the extremely cold environments of laboratories. Now, researchers have succeeded in demonstrating for the very first time ...

Light has always been described as an elegant partnership of electric and magnetic fields, yet for nearly two centuries physicists treated the magnetic side as a quiet background player. New ...

Scientists have uncovered a new way to control magnets using flashes of light lasting less than a trillionth of a second. The approach triggers unusually large magnetic motion without direct contact ...
