Magnetoelectronics Today and Tomorrow

John L. Simonds
OpenURL
Show Topic
Magnetics remains the leading echnology base of the giant recording industry, while novel magnetic device technologies may enable other large market applications.

Micromagnetic Microscopy and Modeling

E. Dan Dahlberg and Jian‐Gang Zhu
OpenURL
Show Topic
The development of new imaging techniques and increasingly powerful computer simulations is rapidly advancing our understanding of magnetization at submicron scales—a regime of great interest to developers of magnetic technologies such as magneto‐optical storage media.

Complex Dynamics of Mesoscopic Magnets

David D. Awschalom and David P. DiVincenzo
OpenURL
Show Topic
The study of ever smaller magnets is pushing us to the limits of our understanding of magnetism, providing new headaches for the technologist and new opportunities for the researcher investigating magnetism at the atomic level.

Electronic Structure Calculations for Magnetically Ordered Systems

Henri J. F. Jansen
OpenURL
Show Topic
Density functional theory calculated on fast computers is a powerful tool for describing magnetic phenomena in solids. It can even handle magnetic anisotropy in layered systems.

Spin‐Polarized Transport

Gary A. Prinz
OpenURL
Show Topic
Electrons have spin as well as charge, and this may make all the difference in future electronics.

Measured Steps Advance the Understanding of Molecular Motors

Barbara Goss Levi
OpenURL
Show Topic
The origin of motion within our bodies has been traced to certain molecules that function as tiny motors. Recent experiments have been able to study individual motor molecules and to measure the size of the discrete, unidirectional steps they take and the force they exert.

Chromium Surrogate Sun Confirms that Solar Neutrinos Really Are Missing

Bertram Schwarzschild
OpenURL
Show Topic
As we hear early reports of neutrino oscillation in an accelerator beam, an experiment with a surrogate Sun lends ci"edence and clarity to the solar neutrino puzzle, the oldest of the anomalies that point to exotic neutrino metamorphosis.
