Quantum magnetometers can detect incredibly small changes in magnetic fields by tapping into the strange and powerful features of quantum physics. These devices rely on the discrete nature and ...

Chirality in organic superconductors was found to induce giant spin-current coupling, mimicking strong spin-orbit effects.

Scientists may be just 15 years away from finally detecting dark matter thanks to a new kind of detector that acts like a “cosmic car radio.” Designed to pick up the elusive frequency of axions — hypo ...

About 41,000 years ago, Homo sapiens may have survived increased solar radiation caused by a weakening magnetic field by ...

Early humans likely used naturally sharp rocks before making their own tools, a new hypothesis suggests, potentially pushing ...
