Most of the time, the shape of Earth’s magnetic field is quite similar to that which would be produced by a bar magnet aligned with the planet’s rotation axis. This is what makes a magnetic compass ...

Exploring Earth's deep interior is a far bigger challenge than exploring the solar system. While we have traveled 25 billion ...

Hidden mega-structures deep inside Earth may have been quietly steering our planet’s magnetic field—and rewriting what we ...

Scientists are mapping the Milky Way galaxy’s invisible magnetic field, revealing how it holds the galaxy together and ...

Visualize the magnetic field generated by a current-carrying loop using Python simulation. This video demonstrates how electric current creates magnetic field lines, making core electromagnetism ...

A study using the Very Large Array radio telescope may have discovered a magnetic field on exoplanet YZ Ceti b. Magnetic ...

Their 3D dynamo model assimilates vast datasets, tracking how large-scale magnetic patterns evolve and shape sunspots, flares, and eruptions on the Sun.

All celestial bodies—planets, suns, even entire galaxies—produce magnetic fields, affecting such cosmic processes as the ...

A new framework for understanding the non-monotonic temperature dependence and sign reversal of the chirality-related ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: It used to be thought that there were more volatiles than expected in lunar soil because they escaped Earth before it had a stable magnetic field.

In the late 1800s, the French naturalist Camille Viguier proposed an idea that would be dismissed and forgotten for more than a century. He speculated that birds and other animals could navigate with ...
