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

A trio of US researchers claim to have successfully tested predictions that it's possible to harvest clean energy from the ...

Surprising differences in the two so-called Large Low-Velocity Provinces may risk instability in Earth's protective magnetic field.

Experiments suggest an unusual magnetic material could help harness energy from Earth’s rotation. But not everyone is ...

Back in 1832, the celebrated British physicist, Michael Faraday, carried out a set of experiments designed to answer a tantalizing question: could electricity be generated by Earth's rotation through ...

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 ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new ...

For nearly two centuries, scientists have wondered if Earth’s rotation through its magnetic field could produce electricity.

A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S ...

Earth's core contains liquid iron which moves around. Iron is magnetic so the liquid iron causes Earth to have a magnetic field. The needle of a compass is a small magnet that can turn.

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 ...
