Some bacterial species possess an astonishing ability: They use Earth's magnetic field to orient themselves. To better understand this mechanism, the team led by Argovia-Professor Martino Poggio from ...

Although measuring a hysteresis loop can be helpful in the magnetic characterization of materials, this approach does not provide information of interactions or coercivity distributions. First-order ...

A research team from the High Magnetic Field Laboratory, the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed a compact dynamic cantilever magnetometer with a ...

Fraunhofer IAF has achieved a milestone in its development of laser threshold magnetometry (LTM), with the first measurement of magnetic-field-dependent stimulated emission. The findings, published in ...

A Raman Research Institute (RRI) team working with cold Rydberg atoms have used quantum magnetometry to help atomic clocks and magnetometers used for precise timekeeping in navigation, ...
