Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those ...

Researchers have identified a potential mechanism that explains how turbulent plasma can produce the vast, ordered magnetic ...

Magnetic fields play an important—if sometimes underappreciated—part in planetary systems. Without a strong magnetic field, planets can end up as a barren wasteland like Mars, or they could indirectly ...
