A triad of torques for spintronic devices The anomalous Hall torque is an example of an emerging concept in spintronics, known as self-generated spin–orbit torques, that exhibit unique spin ...

A team of researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed an innovative green pesticide formulation that promises to enhance pest control ...

Yet recent theoretical studies have suggested that the reverse may sometimes be possible. Here, using a colloidal particle in a heat bath, we present experimental evidence for this inverse Mpemba ...
