Magnetism is a natural force, one that works at a distance. Magnets get their force from magnetic fields created by the atoms within the metal. Magnets are useful for things like turbines we use to ...

The joint development team of Professor Shibata (the University of Tokyo), JEOL Ltd. and Monash University succeeded in directly observing an atomic magnetic field, the origin of magnets (magnetic ...

Traditional magnetic separators, however, present a challenge: they generate a magnetic force that is very high near the side of the vessel closest to the magnet and decreases rapidly with distance.

Scientists have observed atomic magnetic fields, the origin of magnetic forces, for the first time using an innovative Magnetic-field-free Atomic-Resolution STEM they developed. The joint development ...
