In what seems like one new cloaking device being discovered after another, researchers in Spain have modeled a device that they say can prevent magnetism from leaking out of a containment container and also prevent it from being detected by an outside magnetic device. Publishing their results on arXiv, the team calls their proposed creation an antimagnet, rather than a cloaking device.
