Scientists report that a new class of magnetism, altermagnetism, can increase memory device operation speeds by up to a ...

Experiments suggest that an unusual magnetic material can help harness energy from the planet’s rotation. But not everyone is ...

The Earth's Magnetism The fact that the grains of ancient rocks are lined up like tiny compass needles has led to the astonishing conclusion that the earth's magnetic poles have wandered and ...

By analyzing seismic waves from earthquakes from the 1960s, researchers from Peking University deduced that the Earth's inner ...

Deep within Earth’s mantle lie two enormous, continent-sized structures known as LLVPs. Scientists once believed these ...

Would a dramatic change in the Earth's magnetic field affect creatures that rely on it during migration? Late on a January night in 1993 I found myself on a beach on the Pacific coast of Costa ...

Since their relatively recent appearance on the commercial scene, rare-earth magnets have made quite a splash in the public imagination. The amount of magnetic energy packed into these tiny ...

Magnetism is due to the magnetic fields around magnets. The fields can be investigated by looking at the effects of the forces they exert on other magnets and magnetic materials. Electromagnets ...
