Engineers Make Magnets Behave Like Graphene

Engineers have discovered an unexpected link between two very different realms of physics: the behavior of electrons in graphene and magnetic waves in specially engineered materials. By designing a thin magnetic film with a hexagonal pattern of holes—similar to...

These Self-Configuring Modular Robots May One Day Rule The World

We were fascinated to read a recent paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences on what the authors are calling “reconfigurable modular robots.” As the name suggests, these robots are composed of multiple parts that can be configured in...
