Quantum spin liquids (QSLs) are fascinating and mysterious states of matter that have intrigued scientists for decades. First ...

As a budding scientist, Ferreira had a hunch that the same effect could be created using a magnetic liquid found in speakers and electronic devices. On Monday, Ferreira won the Google Science Fair ...

Quantum spin liquids are fascinating states of matter where magnetic spins stay disordered, defying the usual rules of magnetism. Scientists have made an exciting discovery about one such material.

In the Earth (see image below right), the liquid metal that makes up the outer core passes through a magnetic field, which causes an electric current to flow within the liquid metal. The electric ...
