Quantum mechanics has a reputation that precedes it. Virtually everyone who has bumped up against the quantum realm, whether ...

Imagine a world where the weather forecast isn’t just a guess, but a button you can press. Picture farmers summoning rain for ...

The next crucial step involves magnetizing the material—applying a strong magnetic field to align the atoms and turn the metal into a magnet.

As you may recall from Physics 101, a changing magnetic field (like when you slide a bar magnet through a copper coil) induces an electric current. At planetary scale, Earth’s magnetic field induces ...

To measure this local field strength, the first item needed is a working compass. With the compass aligned to north, a magnet is placed with its poles aligned at a right angle to the compass.

That's higher than the orbit where you'll find geostationary satellites, but it's still close enough to the planet that the magnetic field is neat and orderly, more like a bar magnet.

A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...

Earth’s magnetic field, our silent guardian against harmful solar radiation, is a fickle protector. It fluctuates in strength and location, leading to issues in our navigation systems and a deeper ...

Earth's ancient magnetic field appears to have had a strength similar to what we see today, and it may have protected ancient life from harmful cosmic radiation.
