Two German physicists have unveiled a compact magnet layout that outperforms the famed Halbach array, delivering stronger, ...

Natural crystals fascinate with their vibrant colors, their nearly flawless appearance and their manifold symmetrical forms.

The Electrojet Zeeman Imaging Explorer (EZIE) mission aims to map auroral electrojets, improving scientific models of space ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...

“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 ...

The near $16-million reduction would impact "our national security, global positioning, and economic growth," wrote U.S.Rep.

According to the ESA, “Our magnetic field is largely generated by an ocean of superheated, swirling liquid iron that makes up the outer core around 1,864 miles beneath our feet.

Many migratory species use the Earth’s magnetic field to keep their journeys on track. Now a study of a very non-migratory animal, the Drosophila fruit fly, shows the same capacity exists in some ...

Such disturbances can come from the sun's magnetic field, for example, particularly during periods of heightened solar activity, such as sunspots and solar flares, but also from other sources.
