How do pigeons know where they're going while flying across vast distances? Researchers point to their inner ear system.

Pigeons may sense Earth's magnetic field using special cells in the inner ear. This discovery explains how they navigate long ...

Physicists have calculated how suitable molecules can be stimulated by infrared light pulses to form tiny magnetic fields. If this is also successful in experiments, the principle could be used in ...

Preparing and manipulating pure magnetic states in molecular systems are the key initial requirements for harnessing the power of synthetic chemistry to drive practical quantum sensing and computing ...

Stars form when gravity pulls together material within giant clouds of gas and dust. But gravity isn’t the only force at work. Both turbulence and magnetic fields battle gravity, either by stirring ...

Researchers at Rice University and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have unveiled a physics-based model of magnetic resonance ...

Molecular spintronics amalgamates the quantum properties of molecular systems with spin-dependent transport in magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs), offering a pathway to novel device architectures for ...
