Researchers have found that exposing a certain class of particles -- micron-sized beads endowed with a special magnetic sensitivity -- to a rapidly alternating, rotating magnetic field causes them to ...

In the supplemental material the experimental setup is shown (see top image), which is designed to make the individual iron-coated polymer particles rotate. The particles are called Janus particles ...

Marion Cromb receives funding from EPSRC grant EP/W007444/1. Hendrik Ulbricht receives funding from EPSRC (grant EP/W007444/1). Black holes are mysterious objects – there’s a lot we don’t know about ...

Have you ever wondered how induction cooking works? A rotating magnetic field — electrically or mechanically — induces eddy currents in aluminum and that generates heat. When [3D Sage] learned this, ...
