Proven that some people can feel the changes in the magnetic field
Many animals, including some species of birds, sea turtles and some species of bacteria have a special "navigation system" that allows them to feel and use the Earth's magnetic field as a compass. This ability is called magnetorec...
New magnetic materials will help to create engines of the future
Any type of engine converts the incoming energy to move the vehicle. Usually this is a fairly energy efficient process, but even it can be improved. But if you consider the fact that according to statistics of the University of Ch...
IBM explores copper magnetism for the development of "atomic memory modules"
Every innovation in any field starts with basic research that lays the Foundation for future inventions. Now it becomes clear that the media in its present form will cease to exist, as happened once with floppy disks and punch car...
Developed environmentally friendly air conditioners on the basis of magnets
In the warm time of the year to cope with the heat without air conditioning is extremely difficult. However refill them cooling agents are extremely harmful for the environment. A group of engineers from Germany, it seems, have fo...
Magnetic storms can leave us without technology and energy
you've Probably heard of magnetic storms or solar storms. On the surface of the sun appear gigantic eruptions that send charged particles into space. When these particles come in contact with the Earth's magnetic field, it can hav...
Created the first two-dimensional magnet with a thickness of one atom
according to the editors of the journal Nature, a group of scientists from the University of Washington managed to get a connection on the basis of chromium and iodine. The structure of the compound is something of a counterpart o...
