[Dr. Fortin] teaches physics at a French High School, and to get his students interested in the natural world around them, he built a geomagnetic ... the local magnetic field, the mirror rotates ...

Swarm is a constellation of three satellites that study Earth's geomagnetic field. This magnetic field ... the satellites carry state-of-the-art sensors including magnetometers that measure ...

The Sun periodically ejects huge bubbles of plasma from its surface that contain an intense magnetic field. These events are called coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. When two of these ejections collide ...

(NASA) When a co-rotating interaction region or coronal mass ejection sweeps past Earth, their impact distorts and disturbs the planet's geomagnetic field. This can cause electrical or ...

Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize magnetic iron nanominerals, which function as tiny compasses that allow the microbes to navigate using Earth's geomagnetic field. Earth's iron cycle is a very ...

The findings suggest that migratory species such as loggerhead turtles use the geomagnetic field as a map when navigating large distances. The authors suggest the two distinct tools of ...
