Researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute PSI have demonstrated an innovative method to control magnetism in materials using an ...

Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels have increased more or less in parallel over the past 540 million years, suggesting ...

New research suggests that the largest magnetic fields in the universe originated through some exotic mechanism that ...

Here’s how it works. Earth's magnetic field — also known as the geomagnetic field — is generated in our planet's interior and extends out into space, creating a region known as the ...

The oldest firm age yet for Earth's magnetic field suggests that it developed before a solid planetary core, 3.7 billion years ago. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Despite our cosmic connection with the sun, there are still numerous scientific mysteries to unravel about this critical star, particularly its magnetic field. “The sun is not just off in some v ...

Here’s how it works. The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. This phenomenon happens roughly every 11 years and marks an important stage in the solar cycle.

Now, a new study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, reveals loggerhead turtles, the most abundant sea turtle species nesting in the United States, learn the magnetic fields of specific ...

The Earth's magnetic field is essential to life as we know it. But it’s something we can never see – or hear, until now. In a recent study released on Oct. 10 by the European Space Agency ...

This entire process, from the moment the magnetic field was amplified to the time that it decays back to baseline, would have been incredibly fast -- somewhere around 40 minutes, Narrett says.
