Scientists Reveal Powerful Solar Flare Behind South Pacific Radio Blackouts
A solar flare is an extremely bright flash of radiation. It occurs when magnetic energy associated with a sunspot is suddenly released.

ESA’s Solar Orbiter Reveals How Magnetic Avalanches Trigger Solar Flares
New observations from ESA’s Solar Orbiter show that solar flares can be triggered by cascading magnetic disturbances. During a close solar pass, the spacecraft captured fine details of twisted magnetic fields repeatedly breaking and reconnecting, creating a magnetic “avalanche” that amplified a small instability into a powerful flare. The fin...

Scientists Find Clue to High-Temperature Superconductivity in Quantum Materials
Researchers have uncovered a hidden magnetic order in the pseudogap phase of a quantum material, a long-standing mystery in superconductivity research. Using an ultracold-atom simulator based on the Fermi-Hubbard model, the team detected antiferromagnetic correlations emerging above the superconducting transition. The discovery provides fresh insig...

Magnetic Control of Lithium Enables Safer, High-Capacity “Dream Battery” Without Explosion Risk
POSTECH researchers have developed a “dream battery” using magnetic control of lithium to prevent dendrite formation. The hybrid anode stores lithium safely, offers four times the capacity of graphite, and sustains stable cycling, creating a safer high-energy solution for EVs and energy storage.

Scientists Detect Hidden Magnetic Waves That Could Explain the Sun’s Mysterious Heat
For the first time, scientists have directly observed twisting Alfvén waves in the Sun’s corona using the Inouye Solar Telescope. The discovery could explain why the Sun’s outer atmosphere is millions of degrees hotter than its surface, offering key insights into solar energy transfer and space weather prediction.

Metamaterial Breaks Thermal Symmetry, Enables One-Way Heat Emission
Scientists have created a groundbreaking metamaterial that breaks Kirchhoff’s law by emitting 43% more mid-infrared radiation in one direction than it absorbs. Built from layered InGaAs and tested at 512°F with a 5T magnetic field, the structure exhibits record thermal nonreciprocity. This breakthrough enables controlled one-way heat flow, a ste...
