The transverse Thomson effect is observed for the first time: current, heat, and magnetic fields generate controlled cooling ...

Event Horizon Telescope data reveal the magnetic field around M87* shifted, weakened and then flipped, defying theoretical expectations.

Electrons in a magnetic field can display striking behaviors, from the formation of discrete energy levels to the quantum ...

Scientists at the University of Würzburg and the German national metrology institute (PTB) have carried out an experiment that realizes a new kind of quantum standard of resistance. It's based on the ...

A tiny engine comprised of a glass bead zapped with electric fields behaves as if it is operating 2000 times hotter than the ...

Physics is the study of the underlying laws and mechanisms explaining how the universe works. Most of what we do in daily life is based on a principle or law of physics—dealing with forces, motion, ...
