In the immortal words of Insane Clown Posse: "Magnets, how do they work?" We've just discovered a new form: altermagnets. Confused? Join the club Luckily @libor-s.bsky.social explains to me why magnets are as elegant as they are confusing for @newscientist.com www.newscientist.com/article/2487...

We’ve discovered a new kind of magnetism. What can we do with it?

Researchers have found the first new type of magnet in nearly a century. Now, these strange "altermagnets" could help us build an entirely new type of computer

Nature has published an article on nanoscale mapping of altermagnetism coauthored by Libor Šmejkal @libor-s.bsky.social (MPI-PKS/MPI-CPfS).The experimental work confirms predictions of unconventional time-reversal symmetry breaking,boosting potential applications of altermagnetism in nanoelectronics

Our nanoscale mapping of altermagnetism published in Nature magazine (www.nature.com/articles/s41...). The experimental work also confirms our earlier predictions of unconventional time-reversal symmetry breaking (www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...) and brings altermagnetism closer to applications.
