Giant magnetocaloric materials could have large impact on the environment
Materials that change temperature in magnetic fields could lead to new refrigeration technologies that reduce the use of greenhouse gases, thanks to new research at the U.S. Department of Energy's Argonne National Laboratory and Ames National Laboratory. view more (2007-06-20)
The new 'look' of superconductivity
Ames Laboratory physicist Ruslan Prozorov's discovery of the complex patterns in superconducting lead marks a noteworthy departure from the model first proposed by Russian physicist Lev Landau in the 1930s. view more (2007-07-09)
Is there a link between childhood cancer and overhead power lines?
Children living close to high voltage overhead power lines at birth may be at an increased risk of leukaemia, finds a large study in this week's BMJ. view more (2005-06-03)
NPL research shows there could be no end in sight for Moore's Law
The fast pace of growing computing power could be sustained for many years to come thanks to new research from the UK's National Physical Laboratory (NPL) that is applying advanced techniques to magnetic semiconductors. view more (2008-12-09)
Molecular spintronic action confirmed in nanostructure
Researchers at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) have made the first confirmed "spintronic" device incorporating organic molecules, a potentially superior approach for innovative electronics that rely on the spin, and associated magnetic orientation, of electrons. view more (2006-10-13)
Spin-polarized electrons on demand
Many hopes are pinned on spintronics. In the future it could replace electronics, which in the race to produce increasingly rapid computer components, must at sometime reach its limits. Different from electronics, where whole electrons are moved (the digital "one" means "an electron is present on the component", zero means... view more... (2009-01-22)
New nano-method may help compress computer memory
A team of chemists at Brown University have devised a simple way to synthesize iron-platinum nanorods and nanowires while controlling both size and composition. Nanorods with uniform shape and magnetic alignment are one key to the next generation of high-density information storage, but have been difficult to make in bulk. view more (2007-06-25)
Hubble sees magnetic monster in erupting galaxy
The Hubble Space Telescope has found the answer to a long-standing puzzle by resolving giant but delicate filaments shaped by a strong magnetic field around the active galaxy NGC 1275. It is the most striking example of the influence of these immense tentacles of extragalactic magnetic fields, say researchers. view more (2008-08-21)
UK Provides Effective Access To Upcoming Solar Dynamics Observatory
Details of UK involvement in upcoming mission to study the Sun will be outlined at the RAS National Astronomy Meeting in Birmingham on Thursday 7th April. Dr Lidia van Driel-Gesztelyi of UCL's Mullard Space Science Laboratory will make a presentation on NASA's Solar Dynamic Observatory mission, which is due for launch in 2008. view more (2005-03-30)
Strong magnetic fields aid severe depression
For severe depression, electro-shock therapy is nowadays the last hope. However, it can impair memory for weeks after therapy. A less aggressive alternative seems to be provided by what is known as "transcranial magnetic stimulation". view more (2005-07-13)
Pushing the limits of hard disk storage
Just how much data can we cram onto a hard disk? In a paper appearing online today in Physical Review Letters, EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) Professor Harald Brune and his colleagues report what they believe to be the ultimate density limit of magnetic recording. view more (2005-10-10)
Displaced songbirds navigate in the high Arctic
By experimentally relocating migratory white-crowned sparrows (Zonotrichia leucophrys gambelii) from their breeding area in the Canadian Northwest Territories to regions at and around the magnetic North Pole, researchers have gained new insight into how birds navigate in the high Arctic. view more (2005-09-07)
spectroscopyNOW.com - New Proteomics and MRI Channels Launched
spectroscopyNOW.com, the first dedicated spectroscopy portal, is rapidly growing to meet the needs of the constantly expanding field of spectroscopy research. This month two new channels are launched extending the breadth of information provided by this indispensable landmark resource. view more (2002-02-13)
Questions over 'healing effect' of magnet therapy
Patients should be advised that magnet therapy has no proved benefits, and that any healing effect is likely to be small, say US researchers in this week's BMJ. view more (2006-01-06)
Rensselaer researchers create tiny magnetic diamonds on the nanoscale
Diamonds have always been alluring, but now a team of scientists has made them truly magnetic - on the nanoscale. view more (2005-09-13)

Cassini Helps Redraw Shape of Solar System
In a paper published Oct. 15 in Science, researchers from the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) present a new view of the region of the sun's influence, or heliosphere, and the forces that shape it. Images from one of the Magnetospheric Imaging Instrument's sensors, the Ion and Neutral Camera (MIMI/INCA), on NASA's Cassini spacecraft... view more... (2009-10-16)
Screaming CMEs Warn of Radiation Storms
A CME (Coronal Mass Ejection) is a solar body slam to our high-tech civilization. CMEs begin when the sun launches a billion tons of electrically conducting gas (plasma) into space at millions of miles per hour. view more (2007-05-29)

Medical Imaging with 'Swiss Rolls'
Under Strict Embargo for 19:00 London GMT/14.00 US EST Thursday 1 February A novel magnetic material developed by British researchers may lead to dramatic improvements in the performance of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. Writing in the journal Science today they describe initial experiments confirming the exotic nature of the material... view more... (2001-02-01)
