The Earth’s magnetic field briefly collapsed, leaving life on Earth exposed to increased solar and cosmic radiation. This ...

This persnickety number determines the strength of magnetic fields. It figures in everything from motors and generators to audio speakers. Oh, and without it we’d live in eternal darkness.

Long before galaxies sparkled in the sky or stars took shape, invisible forces stirred in the early Universe. One of those ...

UC Santa Cruz applied mathematicians produced the first self-consistent models of the Sun’s tachocline incorporating the ...

New images from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), an international collaboration involving several University of Toronto ...

Recently, I came across a piece of news stating that scientists have discovered that the Earth's magnetic field is declining, ...

Electrons in a magnetic field can display striking behaviors, from the formation of discrete energy levels to the quantum ...

The early Universe hosted ultra-weak magnetic fields that still shaped cosmic structures. New simulations establish stricter limits on their strength. Magnetic fields that originated during the earlie ...

Yale researchers may have solved a longstanding puzzle as to why certain metallic meteorites show traces of a magnetic field — a finding that may shed light on the formation of magnetic dynamos at the ...
