The magnetized rocks of Earth's crust and mantle, also known as the upper lithosphere, accounts for generating 6 percent of ...
Artifacts from the Iron Age have revealed an intense historical magnetic anomaly in the Middle East. Could using a similar approach elsewhere help us unravel the mysteries of Earth's magnetic field?
A powerful new technique harnesses swirling plasma inside laser-blasted microtubes to produce record-breaking magnetic fields ...
A team of scientists has developed a powerful new way to detect subtle magnetic signals in common metals like copper, gold, ...
Earth's magnetic field protects from solar radiation. It originates from molten core motion. Magnetic north pole moves constantly. Field reversals occurred in the past. The field weakens in some areas ...
The moon may be silent and still today, but billions of years ago, it likely crackled with magnetic activity. Though the moon now lacks a global magnetic field, its rocks—especially those on the ...
A combination of a dynamo-generated magnetic field and massive impacts could explain the highly magnetized rocks in some lunar regions.
A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometres in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance magnetic fields.
This is particularly true in the realm of quantum materials. Researchers have now exposed the semimetal zirconium pentatelluride (ZrTe₅) to high magnetic fields and very low temperatures.
It’s basically a way to describe how strong the electric and magnetic force is at some point in time and space – just, considered all at once. What types of electromagnetic fields exist?
Illustration of the global coronal magnetic field as the sun rotates. The background is the solar corona observed in extreme-ultraviolet waveband, with global coronal magnetic field maps measured ...
