Artistic illustration of Floquet-engineered magnons: Using time as a resource, a static magnetic vortex evolves into a ...

Magnets often harbour hidden beauty. Take a simple fridge magnet: Somewhat counterintuitively, it is 'sticky' on one side but not the other. The secret lies in the way the magnetisation is arranged in ...

Three-dimensional magnetic vortices have been discovered by scientists from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany together with colleagues from the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland ...

Stabilising curve: The arrows show the remnant magnetisation of a toroidal nanomagnet. On the outer edge (the right) we can see a vortex where the magnetisation spirals inwards to a point. An ...
