Physicists have forced light to behave like electrons trapped in a magnetic field, reproducing the quantum Hall effect with photons for the first time. The experiment, carried out on an optical fiber ...

Scientists have found that it’s possible to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation through its own magnetic field using a magnetic tube resting stationary on the planet’s surface. But before ...

Scientists have pulled off a feat long considered out of reach: getting light to mimic the famous quantum Hall effect. In ...
