Scientists have uncovered a mysterious structure that surround the earth rather like a giant zebraprint jacket. The strange structure has never been seen before, and initially baffled scientists.

Earth’s inner radiation belt displays a persistent zebra striped pattern generated by our planet's rotation, Nasa’s twin Van Allen Probes spacecraft have found. Scientists had previously believed that ...

Electrons in Earth's magnetic field often exhibit a striped pattern of intensity as a function of electron energy and altitude. A model that factors in some unexpectedly important effects can now ...

Scientists have discovered a new, persistent structure in one of two radiation belts surrounding Earth. NASA's twin Van Allen Probes spacecraft have shown that high-energy electrons in the inner ...

Two giant belts of radiation surround Earth. The inner belt is dominated by electrons and the outer one by protons. NASA Scientists working with NASA’s Van Allen Probes spacecraft have spotted a new ...
