Physicists identify 'octupolar' magnetism, with implications for quantum tech (phys.org) 1 points by smurda 24d ago ↗ HN
[–] gus_massa 24d ago ↗ On one hand the article oversells how weir this is. For electric charge this is quite usual https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipole_expansion and magnetism is not so different.On the other hand, some of these materials get actual applications after a few years. At least for me, it's very hard to guess if this one will be useful.
