MIT demonstrates magnetic transistor with 10x stronger switching and built-in memory
The MIT team turned to chromium sulfur bromide, a two-dimensional material that acts as a magnetic semiconductor. Its structure allows researchers to switch between two magnetic states with precision.
MIT’s SCIGEN and Samsung’s PaRS embed physics into AI, helping LLMs propose exotic, feasible materials for quantum, energy, ...
The last gasp of a primordial black hole may be the source of the highest-energy "ghost particle" detected to date, a new MIT ...
The College of Natural Sciences welcomed more than a dozen new tenured and tenure-track faculty members in 2025.
Surprisingly, they found that only around 10% of a quake’s energy causes the physical shaking most people associate with ...
Super-cooling radioactive atoms could create a laser-like neutrino beam, potentially opening a new avenue for studying these elusive particles and even enabling novel forms of communication. Every ...
