Professor Dallas Trinkle and colleagues have provided the first quantitative explanation for how magnetic fields slow carbon ...

Earth's magnetic field dramatically flipped roughly 41,000 years ago. We can now experience this epic upheaval, thanks to a clever interpretation of information collected by the European Space ...

Antiferromagnetic (AF) materials are made up of atoms or molecules with atomic spins that align in antiparallel directions of ...

A giant sunspot may be about to erupt, sending out the most powerful form of solar flares growing for days. Sunspot AR3089, which is facing towards the Earth, has now developed a delta-class 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 ...

New simulations suggest that the origins of the sun's explosive storms could lie much closer to its surface than first thought. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate ...

Voyager 2 data from Uranus and Neptune revealed their magnetic fields are non-dipolar and disordered, a stark contrast to the dipolar fields observed on Earth, Jupiter, and Saturn. Astronomer Burkhard ...

Unmanned aircraft systems – more popularly known as drones – have emerged as a novel method of inspecting power lines, allowing power utility companies to review the health of their infrastructure ...
