Of the 91 metals that we know to exist, only three are truly magnetic at room temperature: iron, cobalt and nickel. This poses something of a problem as we have to rely heavily on these elements for ...

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Antiferromagnetic (AF) materials are made up of atoms or molecules with atomic spins that align in antiparallel directions of their neighbors. The magnetism of each individual atom or molecule is ...
