Wobbly Polarity Is Key To Preventing Magnetic Avalanches On Disk Drives (7/19/2007)

Push two magnets together and you'll set off an avalanche of activity, forcing atoms on each magnet to align their polarity with the intruding magnetic field. It may sound like a party trick for physicists, but you do it every time you press "Save" on your computer. ...> Full Article
