I What makes cobalt oxide (co3o4) a magnetic material?

Click For Summary
Cobalt oxide (Co3O4) is being investigated for its magnetic properties, stemming from the inherent magnetism of cobalt. Understanding the bonding interactions between cobalt and oxygen is crucial in determining the magnetic characteristics of Co3O4. Resources like Wikipedia and academic papers provide foundational knowledge and references for further exploration. Online databases may also list various magnetic materials and their properties. Researching these sources will clarify whether Co3O4 exhibits magnetic behavior.

TL;DR
Which compunds of cobalts are magnetic?
We know cobalt is a magnetic material, it can attracted by magnet. Now if we want to know for example cobalt oxide (co3o4) has magnetic property or not what we should do? I mean is there a role to know bonding of cobalt with which elements results in magnetic property? or is there any online website that list all kind of magnetic materials with details?

Thread 'Time rondeau crystals, experimental observations'

A relative asked me about the following article: Experimental observation of a time rondeau crystal https://www.nature.com/articles/s41567-025-03028-y I pointed my relative to following article: Scientists Discovered a Time Crystal That Reveals a New Way to Order Time https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/scientists-discovered-time-crystal-reveals-180055389.html This area is outside of my regular experience. I'm interested in radiation effects in polycrystalline material, i.e., grain...
