Here's how a mountain-sized rock just below the coast of southern Japan may have been the source for disastrous earthquakes.

If you enjoy making poetry but don't know where to start, this online fridge magnet poetry simulator is a lot of fun. There are a ton of words to choose from, and it just takes a second to cl…

The automaker says their next motor will use non-rare-earth magnets—and that's baffling

Researchers discovered how to control the anomalous Hall effect and Berry curvature to create flexible quantum magnets for use in computers, robotics, and sensors.

For the first time I used a magnet link. Curious about how it works, I looked up the specs and didn't find any answers. The wiki says xt means "exact topic" and is followed by the format (btih in t...

It's a good time to be in the magnet business in Texas. San Marcos-based Noveon Magnetics has announced a massive funding round months after hosting Gov. Greg Abbott's State of the State address. This story explores the capital infusion and the uses for its magnets.

Aside from demonstrating how useless Hermit Purple is, the gang finds themselves in a series of magnetic dilemmas. [podcast covers anime episodes 29: "Anubis, Part 2" and 30: "Bastet's Mariah, Part 1"]

A new study led by Vinod M. Menon and his group at the City College of New York shows that trapping light inside magnetic materials may dramatically enhance their intrinsic properties. Strong optical responses of magnets are important for the development of magnetic lasers and magneto-optical memory devices, as well as for emerging quantum transduction applications.

By studying how the arachnids respond to static electricity, researchers may have found a new reason to dread the bloodsucking creatures.

Magnetic skyrmions have received much attention as promising, topologically protected quasiparticles with applications in spintronics. Skyrmions are small, swirling topological magnetic excitations with particle-like properties. Nevertheless, the lower stability of magnetic skyrmions only allow them to exist in a narrow temperature range, with low density of the particles, thus implying the need for an external…

Bryce Nachtwey pulled up unexploded ordnance in Louisiana.

A group of UK tech leaders visited India, and may have seen the next world-leading tech ecosystem emerging

Unrelated legislation almost always hitches a ride on the bill — partly because of its size and partly because it's so likely to be enacted.

You won't find these "Dividend Accelerators" among the big names of the Dow.

All magnets—from the simple souvenirs hanging on your refrigerator to the disks that give your computer memory to the powerful versions used in research labs—contain spinning quasiparticles called magnons. The direction one magnon spins can influence that of its neighbor, which affects the spin of its neighbor, and so on, yielding what are known as spin waves. Information can potentially be transmitted via spin…

Magnet Releasing, the genre arm of indie distributor Magnolia Pictures, has acquired North American rights to "The Seeding," a new horror-thriller. It

Novelist and Chicago native Adam Langer revisits the Evanston of his youth through the lens of #MeToo in Cyclorama.
