Key Points: 
  • b'MOSCOW, April 22, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- ANUST MISIS professor was part ofaninternational research team that has found evidence for the existence ofthe Zeeman spin-orbit coupling inantiferromagnetic conductors.
  • The study was published in npj Quantum Materials .\nThe electron possesses two fundamental properties: charge and spin.
  • Aspin-orbit coupling ofanunusual nature, termed Zeeman spin-orbit coupling isexpected tomanifest itself inawide range offerromagnetic conductors.
  • Obtained ontwo very different materials, the results ofthis work demonstrate the generic nature ofthe Zeeman spinorbit coupling.
