Scientists know well how conventional materials conduct heat. However, things are not as straightforward under extreme conditions such as temperatures close to absolute zero combined with strong ...

A Fargo-based company has come up with a revolutionary way to produce massive quantities of portable heat using magnets instead of flame. The machines, capable of producing millions of British thermal ...

In conventional heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR), a laser is used to locally heat the recording medium to facilitate data writing. However, the thermal energy applied is largely dissipated ...

Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy's Ames National Laboratory have created a magnetic heat pump that works just as well as standard air conditioners and heaters without using harmful ...
