Scientists from MIPT and several research teams working in Russia and other European countries have been the first to reliably realize and document the phenomenon of water molecular dipoles ordering ...

Magnetic monopoles, entities with isolated north or south magnetic poles, weren't supposed to exist. If you try to saw a bar magnet in half, all you succeed in getting are two magnets, each with a ...

One of the phenomena that make superconductors unique materials is the Meissner-Ochsenfeld effect. This effect results in a state in which an applied magnetic field is expelled from the bulk of the ...

Energy-storage devices called capacitors deliver power rapidly, but the amount of energy they can absorb is limited. Deliberately disordered electric dipoles in ‘antiferroelectric’ capacitor materials ...

Dipole chains – straight lines or zigzags? Photon emission electron micrograph of the magnetic state of the islands at 140 K. In the blue-coloured islands, the magnetic dipoles point upwards along the ...

Many of the advanced electronic components surrounding us in everyday life rely on polar materials to function. Polar ...

Scientists have sharpened the theoretical framework under which monopoles can be studied. Magnetic monopoles, entities with isolated north or south magnetic poles, weren't supposed to exist. If you ...
