The strongest magnetic field known was not in some planetary anomaly or natural cores of the universe, but in a lab in the United States.

Astronomers have captured the clearest picture yet of how massive stars are born, revealing a dramatic interplay between ...

In physics, we have a bunch of constants that are used in models to explain how the world works. These are fixed numbers that we plug into equations along with our variables. For example, the ...

For over half a billion years, Earth’s magnetic field has risen and fallen in sync with oxygen levels in the atmosphere, and scientists are finally uncovering why. A NASA-led study reveals a striking ...

As with any such correlation, one has to entertain the notion that said correlation might be spurious or indirectly related before assuming a strong causal link. Here it is for example known already ...

Earth's magnetic field and oxygen levels are inextricably linked, new research suggests. The strength of the geomagnetic field has gone up in lockstep with the percentage of oxygen in Earth's ...

The spatial positioning of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images is determined by generating a linearly varying gradient magnetic field through a gradient coil, which plays a pivotal role in the ...

Researchers proposed a novel strategy for using a magnetic field to boost the efficiency of single-atom catalysts -- thus speeding up helpful reactions used for ammonia production and wastewater ...

The Moon's present lack of a global magnetic field contrasts with evidence of significant magnetization in lunar rocks and large surface regions, a long-standing scientific enigma. A new model ...
