Discover how to build a magnetic repulsion motor capable of lighting LED bulbs using only magnets and basic components. This ...

"A strong magnetic field is very important for life on a planet," study lead Miki Nakajima, an associate professor in the ...

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Earth’s magnetic field nearly collapsed long ago. What saved it explains why life survived and why the planet remains ...

In addition to shaping the interior of rocky planets, molten rock located deep within these planets may also contribute to ...

In a tokamak—a donut-shaped device that uses magnetic fields to confine plasma—sudden disruptions can occur. During these events, electrons can accelerate to near the speed of light, creating a ...

Researchers documented the activity of neurons that shape directional navigation as bats explored a remote island off the ...

Even very slight environmental noise, such as microscopic vibrations or magnetic field fluctuations a hundred times smaller ...

Parts of about 27 states are partially or fully within NOAA's forecasted "view line" for the northern lights on Jan. 20. The ...

Two or more satellites could communicate and manoeuvre around one another using magnetic fields, although getting the technique to work at scale in space might be tricky ...

A strong geomagnetic storm could interact with Earth's atmosphere within the next 24 hours, bringing the potential for ...

According to the SWPC, the best time to see the Northern Lights is between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m., as the level of geomagnetic ...
