SPEED RECORD FOR MAGNETIC SWITCHING PREDICTED, March 15
Scientists of the Research Centre Jülich, Germany, have found a fundamentally new magnetic switching method which achieves the fastest speed ever reported by applying an external magnetic field. The re-sults that are presented in a current article in the renowned scientific journal Physical Review Letters could introduce new possibilities for future data stor-age applications with ultimate speeds.

SCIENTISTS DEVELOP NEW TERAHERTZ MATERIAL, March 15
Researchers at Los Alamos National Laboratory have created a device for manipulating terahertz (THz) radiation. The device could be the basis for novel electronics and photonics applications ranging from new imaging methods to advanced communication technologies. The THz range of the electromagnetic spectrum lies between the infrared and microwave wavelengths.

SANDIA'S Z MACHINE CREATES ICE IN NANOSECONDS, March 15
Sandia's huge Z machine, which generates termperatures hottter than the sun, has turned water to ice in nanoseconds. However, don't expect anything commercial just yet: the ice is hotter than the boiling point of water.
