Abstract

We present a collection of experimental evidence on UFOs: Unidentified Ferromagnetic Organic structures. Five types of carbon magnets have been obtained experimentally: 1. Chains of interacting radicals 2. Carbonaceous substances with a mixture of sp2 and sp3 coordinated atoms 3. Amorphous carbon structures containing trivalent elements like P, N. B. 4. Nanographite and bulk graphite, nanodiamond, carbon nanofoam 5. Fullerenes.
