Researchers in China have developed a new way of probing the magnetic domains within altermagnetic materials and used it to study a prominent altermagnet candidate, alpha-phase iron oxide. According to their measurements, this material shares certain properties with ferromagnets despite having a near-zero net magnetization – a fact the researchers say supports its classification as an altermagnet.
