Magnets are widely used today for all sorts of scenarios from medical devices to storing data inside computers. The thing that magnets have in common is that they are made of solid material.

A microfluidic system with channels lined with magnetic liquids can ease the flow of samples and safely transport delicate cells, possibly helping to miniaturize microfluidic devices (Nature 2020, DOI ...

Scientists demonstrate a fluid that couples electric and magnetic order at room temperature, introducing a soft multiferroic platform for reconfigurable sensing, actuation, and field-controlled ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. A chain of plasmoids is created on the equatorial plane along the current sheet, where the particle density (left part) is higher.

Scientists at SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory in California have found a new way to explain how charged particles are ejected in the form of jets from black holes. These exciting findings could ...

Researchers at Yale have demonstrated a device that uses a magnetic liquid to separate blood cells based on their size and shape in just minutes. This device uses magnetic fields to separate cells by ...

Magnets as we know them are always solid, but the closest thing we have to a magnetic liquid is a class of liquids called ferrofluids. Made up of iron-oxide particles suspended in liquids, these ...

The Earth's liquid molten outer core, composed mostly of iron and nickel, exerts an electromagnetic field extending from the north and south pole that protects the planet from harmful solar particle ...

The research shows that spinning black holes can power humongous particle jets not just through magnetic torque, as has been widely assumed, but also through a process known as magnetic reconnection — ...
