Researchers at the University of Oxford have found that the Moon’s ancient magnetic field was not steady and long-lived but ...

Researchers from the Department of Earth Sciences at the University of Oxford have resolved a long-standing debate about the strength of the Moon’s ancient magnetic field, finding that brief, intense ...

This magnetization can lead to a voltage perpendicular to the electric current even without an external magnetic field; this is the anomalous Hall effect. In contrast, antiferromagnets feature spins ...

Paleomagnetic analysis of 28 Ryugu asteroid particles reveals stable magnetization acquired within millions of years of solar ...

A small, round piece of asteroid Ryugu (sample #91), called “S-lunar,” contains tiny particles (less than 1 mm) that will allow planetary scientists to study the magnetic signature of the early solar ...

To uncover the history of our solar system, it is necessary to study the dynamic evolution of the ancient solar nebula materials. These materials interacted and coevolved with the weak but widespread ...

The future development of functional magnetic devices based on ultrafast optical manipulation of spins requires an understanding of the depth-dependent spin dynamics across the interfaces of complex ...

Spintronics -- based on the principles of electron charge and magnetic spin -- goes beyond the limits of conventional electronics. However, spintronic devices are yet to see advances, because ...

Samples from Ryugu, a small, near-Earth asteroid, preserve natural remanent magnetization (NRM) from the early history of the solar system. However, despite multiple studies, there is currently no ...
