That’s quite a big gap, as it turns out. It covers fields from gigantic bodies like the Sun and Earth, as well as those ...

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not ...

A pair of physicists at the University of Crete has found that some types of biological magnetoreceptors used by various creatures to navigate, operate at or near the quantum limit. In their paper ...

Multiferroic materials, in which electric and magnetic properties are combined in promising ways, will be the heart of new ...

CHARLOTTE, N.C.– We now know that Earth’s magnetic field is triggering a superpower in sea turtles. Loggerhead sea turtles have the ability to find nesting and feeding areas without landmarks. A new ...

Earth’s magnetic field is detected by species across the animal kingdom, but new research suggests that sea turtles may be ...

In a first, US researchers have observed fractional excitons, a new class of quantum particles, that were only theoretically ...

Now, a new study, published Wednesday in the journal Nature, reveals loggerhead turtles, the most abundant sea turtle species nesting in the United States, learn the magnetic fields of specific ...

In quantum physics, subatomic particles behave strangely—they can be in two places simultaneously, move through solid objects, and communicate instantly over long distances. Scientists are studying ...

Sea turtles navigate using Earth's magnetic field like a GPS. Scientists found they learn and remember magnetic locations.
