The computer's storage media prior to solid state drives (SSDs). Magnetic tape and disks were developed in the 1950s and commonly used together in companies for decades. Tape was the primary medium ...

Polarized light observations from ALMA reveal the magnetic structures and galactic outflows in Arp 220, the nearest ultraluminous infrared galaxy to Earth, providing detailed field maps.

Storing computer data began with magnetic tape and then magnetic disk and eventually solid state drives. However, tape is likely to thrive well into the future, primarily using Linear Tape Open ...

An international team of scientists led by astronomers from the University of Wisconsin–Madison has produced the most accurate measurement of the gases swirling around young stars and how their mass ...

Hot stuff Heat-assisted magnetic recording is set to boost the storage capacity of hard disks still further. (Courtesy: Seagate Technology) When it comes to storing data, you might think that magnetic ...

The Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (CFHT), one of the oldest facilities on the summit of Mauna-Kea, is at the forefront of optical astronomy through stunning wide field images of the universe, thanks ...

Researchers at HZDR managed to generate wave-like excitations in a magnetic disk – so-called magnons – to specifically manipulate a atomic-sized qubits in silicon carbide. This could open new ...

Three-dimensional magnetic vortices have been discovered by scientists from the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf in Germany together with colleagues from the Paul Scherrer Institute in Switzerland ...
