We are in need of a new form of magnetism. Altermagnetism, a weird twist on familiar magnets, could jumpstart progress - and it's just the beginning. https://t.co/J6u4cErQed
The discovery of #altermagnetism was recognized as one of the Top 10 science breakthroughs of 2024, led by advances in HIV research and featuring also the #Starship landing.
Looking forward to and wishing you all the best for 2025!
#ICYMI: Science’s 2024 Breakthrough of the Year is lenacapavir, an injectable drug that demonstrated remarkable success at preventing HIV infection with one shot every 6 months.

Scientists have found a new kind of magnetic material that has been hiding in plain sight for almost a century. Altermagnets could work more effectively than the familiar sort. And this might not be the end of the story https://t.co/KtjBU8rlYg 👇
Spectroscopic data suggest that thin films of a certain semiconducting material can exhibit altermagnetism, a new and fundamental form of magnetism
