Japanese Breakthrough: New Type of Magnet Found that Affects Light

Summary by kikar.co.il
Using an innovative optical method based on Maxwell's equations, a team of Japanese researchers from Tohoku University has managed to measure a unique optical effect in an organic material and prove the existence of the ultramagnet. Unlike ordinary magnets, the ultramagnet does not exhibit magnetization but affects the polarization of light reflected from it - a phenomenon that has been very difficult to measure until now. The study was publishe…
