Shedding new light on invisible forces: Hidden magnetic clues in everyday metals unlocked

A team of scientists has developed a powerful new way to detect subtle magnetic signals in common metals like copper, gold, and aluminum—using nothing more than light and a clever technique. Their research, recently published in Nature Communications, could pave the way for advances in everything from smartphones to quantum computing.

The magic of magnons: Material properties changed non-thermally using light and magnons - Tech and Science Post

Is it wizardry? Physicists at the University of Konstanz have succeeded in changing the properties of a material in a non-thermal way with the help of light and magnons. The new process is not only promising for information technology, but possibly for quantum research, too—at room temperature. Imagine you could change the properties of a material so that it would almost magically turn into a different material. You need neither a magic wand nor…
