Recently the MagQuest competition on improving the measuring of the Earth’s magnetic field announced that the contestants in ...

High school students in Portugal programmed a small, inexpensive Raspberry Pi computer to measure Earth's magnetic field from the International Space Station. When you purchase through links on our ...

Our planet’s magnetosphere has seen dramatic shifts across its history—even total reversals—but this recent wrinkle doesn’t ...

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have shown that by using DNA molecules as scaffolds, they were able to create superconducting nanodevices that demonstrate a new type of ...

Insight-HXMT’s discovery of the fundamental electron cyclotron absorption line near 146 keV for the first Galactic ultraluminous X-ray pulsar Swift J 0243.6+6124. Neutron stars have the strongest ...

Astronomers have measured the strongest magnetic field ever found in the universe. The honor goes to a powerful type of neutron star, with a surface magnetic field of over 1.6 billion Tesla. The newly ...

ESA's Solar Orbiter reveals the dynamics of the Sun's magnetic field, shedding light on the 11-year solar activity cycle.

Unlike conventional Hall sensors that only respond to the field component perpendicular to the device surface, the Type CSA-1 single-axis and the Type 2SA-1 two-axis sensors respond to a magnetic ...

For desert ants, Earth’s magnetic field isn’t just a compass: It may also sculpt their brains. Stepping outside their nest for the first time, young ants need to learn how to forage. The ants train ...
