1 Magnetism's subatomic roots
( Rice University ) Theoretical physicists from Rice University have created a new model that helps define the subatomic origins of ferromagnetism -- the everyday "magnetism" of compass needles and refrigerator magnets. The model, which is detailed in a new paper in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, was created to explore the inner workings of ferromagnetic compounds that are ...

3 Cluster Turns The Invisible Into The Visible
Cluster has spent a decade revealing previously hidden interactions between the Sun and Earth. Its studies have uncovered secrets of the aurora, solar storms, and given us insight into fundamental processes that occur across the Universe. And there is more work to do. The aurora, those dancing lights in the polar skies, are but the visible manifestation of an invisible battle taking place above ... Source: redOrbit

8 From Smoots to Semiconductors
After a checkered career at MIT, Jerry Woodall '60 helped revolutionize electronics. A s a young boy, Jerry Woodall '60 took things apart to see how they worked, earning him the nickname "Tinker." When he dismantled the family's electric iron, his father sat Jerry down and told him not to take things apart unless he could put them back together. So Woodall focused on building, challenging ...
