Scientists in the United States have created a small device that produces a tiny electrical signal from Earth’s natural rotation. Although the voltage is extremely small, the experiment shows that ...

Multiferroic materials, in which electric and magnetic properties are combined in promising ways, will be the heart of new solutions for data storage, data transmission, and quantum computers.

Magnetic rotation and antimagnetic rotation represent distinct mechanisms by which atomic nuclei generate angular momentum in systems that exhibit little or no permanent quadrupole deformation. In ...

(Nanowerk News) When it comes to galaxies, how fast is fast? The Milky Way, an average spiral galaxy, spins at a speed of 130 miles per second (210 km/sec) in our Sun’s neighborhood. New research has ...

Most spiral galaxies rotate with their arms trailing the direction of spin, a characteristic consistent with current astronomical models. The perceived rotational direction (clockwise or ...

THE amount of data available on the magnetic field of the Galaxy has increased considerably since the discovery of linear polarization in the galactic background radio emission 1. There now exist ...
