Physicists have shown that an idealized form of magnetism is heatproof
Heat is supposed to ruin anything it touches. But physicists have shown that an idealized form of magnetism is heatproof.
In a string of results over the past few years, researchers have shown that an idealized substance resembling two intermingled magnets can — in theory — maintain an orderly pattern no matter how hot it gets. They gave up the search for a more solid proof until this fall, when a team of European physicists — Michael Scherer, Junchen Rong and Bilal Hawashin — advanced the case. Their work inspired Komargodski and a new collaborator, Fedor Popov, to return to the problem and finally find a rigorous proof of the unmeltable order that overcomes all previous shortcomings.
