The scientific world has recently made another great and surprising discovery. Although the atoms of irregular magnetic materials have been observed to freeze when cooled, the opposite has been observed for the first time in history. a heated magnetic material freezes seen.

According to the study, published July 4 in the journal Nature, the material in question is “self-induced spinning glassdefined as ‘neodymiumIt was an element named ‘. These spinning glasses are alloys formed when iron atoms are randomly scattered between copper atoms. The magnetic north and south poles of all atoms point in different directions.

Heating element ‘frozen’:

The neodymium element, which is mainly used in making magnets, does not act as a magnet on its own. Even the discovery that neodymium is a self-generated spinning glass, just two years ago took place. Scientists working on the element wanted to see how the element reacted to changing temperatures this time around.

When the element was heated, a result appeared that did not match anything natural. Under normal conditions, especially with magnets, heating makes the magnetic poles of atoms irregular, the opposite happened with neodymium† It was observed that neodymium heated from -268 degrees Celsius to -265 degrees Celsius gave the same reaction when other materials were cooled. good magnetic poles were aligned with each other.

There is no clear explanation for this situation, which is not seen in magnetic materials under normal conditions. But scientists are trying to shed light on the reason behind this strange behavior. will do new work states.
