A previously overlooked set of spin symmetries has revealed that magnetism does not fit neatly into just two categories. For more than a century, physicists divided collinear magnets into two basic types. The discovery of altermagnetism has added a third, earning Professor Jairo Sinova of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU), Dr. Libor Šmejkal and Professor […]

UK’s £3 Million Bet Could Help NASA Find Life on Nearby Planets
A £3 million investment could help secure a leading UK role in NASA’s future search for life on nearby planets. An Earth-like planet orbiting a nearby star would appear as little more than a dim point beside a light source 10 billion times brighter. British astronomers are preparing technology that could help NASA separate that […]
Giant Alien World Found Hiding in Plain Sight for 11 Years
A giant planet spent more than a decade concealed inside one of astronomy’s most closely watched star systems. Astronomers have discovered a planet named Beta Pictoris d orbiting a young star just 63 light-years from Earth. The gas giant is about 100 times fainter than Beta Pictoris b, the first planet found in the system, […]
What It Takes To Make a White Blood Cell Could Unlock New Cancer Treatments
A protein and signaling pathway may help overcome the developmental block that keeps some leukemia cells immature. Inside the bone marrow, immature blood cells normally pass through a tightly controlled sequence of development before taking on specialized roles. In aggressive forms of leukemia, some of these precursor cells become trapped partway through that process. Instead […]
