From time to time, the Earth's magnetic poles flip, leaving us without a protective magnetic field for up to centuries ...

If you took introductory physics, you learned about the “fundamental forces.” It goes something like this: All interactions are the result of one or more of five basic forces: strong nuclear, weak ...

Researchers show that Cartan's First Structure Equation links crystal defects to the same mathematical rules governing electric currents and magnetic fields. (Nanowerk News) A fundamental goal of ...

Team uses light to control magnetic fields in quantum materials, steering resistance-free electric currents for energy-efficient quantum computing. (Nanowerk News) By controlling magnetic fields using ...

Five years after NASA’s MAVEN spacecraft entered into orbit around Mars, data from the mission has led to the creation of a map of electric current systems in the Martian atmosphere. “These currents ...

Researchers at Tohoku University, the University of Manchester, and Osaka University have made a breakthrough that has the potential to ignite the development of next-gen chiral information technology ...

Recent breakthroughs show magnetic fields behaving in unexpected ways, from reviving superconductivity in nickelates to self-magnetizing fusion plasmas. These findings challenge long-held assumptions ...

Poseidon is probably still getting used to our growth from wooden boats to enormous cruise ships. Imagine his shock when he ...
