White working-class girls are being overlooked in efforts to tackle underachievement in schools across England, education leaders have said. Since 2019, the number of low-income, white British girls ...

Approximately 2% of the nation’s 6,093 hospitals have achieved Magnet designation at least five times, according to data from the American Nurses Credentialing Center. The ANCC has recognized 657 ...

Magnetic vortices When researchers at UT Austin coaxed an atomically thin sheet of nickel phosphorus trisulphide to enter an unusual magnetic state called the BKT phase, the magnetic orientations of ...

A magnet small enough to fit in the palm of your hand can match the strength of some of the world’s most powerful magnets for the first time. But superconducting magnets that produce strong magnetic ...

At the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Florida, scientists operate the world’s strongest continuous magnet, capable of generating an enormous 45-tesla magnetic field. That is nearly a ...

Scientists at the University of Oxford have finally settled a decades-long mystery about the Moon’s magnetic field — and it turns out both sides were right. By reanalyzing Apollo mission rocks, they ...

Observation of BKT and six-state clock phases reveals how magnetism behaves in two dimensions and may inspire ultracompact technologies. When researchers at UT Austin coaxed an atomically thin sheet ...

Hydrogen is expected to play a central role in future clean energy systems, but storing it efficiently and safely remains one of the biggest challenges to its widespread adoption. Solid-state hydrogen ...

Physicists have discovered that hidden magnetic order plays a key role in the pseudogap, a puzzling state of matter that appears just before certain materials become superconductors. Using an ...

The American Nurses Credentialing Center has awarded 650 hospitals worldwide with the prestigious “Magnet” designation, but only six hospitals have earned the recognition seven times. Becoming a ...

If you grew up around some of the earlier models of televisions and computers, you may have received at least one sternly-worded warning to never place a magnet near them. These warnings still persist ...
