Highly charged heavy ions form a very suitable experimental field for investigating quantum electrodynamics (QED), the ...

American researchers have measured a tiny electrical voltage by exploiting Earth's magnetic field in the planet's rotational motion. This discovery, though modest, revives a scientific debate ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometers in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) marked a major milestone Tuesday morning, announcing the installation of a key component of ...

You may have noticed the large painted numbers (or alphanumeric in some cases) on either end of the runways. Have you ever ...

Why Do Dogs Spin Around Before They Poop? A few theories have circulated about why dogs might circle before pooping, and most ...

The magnetic north pole is not in the same location as the geographic north pole, which is located 1,300 miles away.

Scientists in Spain have investigated the total or partial interruptions of ribbons that connect solar cells in modules and ...

Magnetic devices are components for creating, manipulating or detecting magnetic fields. This can include magnetic memories, magnetometers and devices for magneto-optics. Magnetism can also play a ...

Scientists have unlocked a way to read magnetic orientation at record-breaking speeds using terahertz radiation. Modern hard ...

With today’s data rates of only a few hundred megabytes per second, access to digital information remains relatively slow.

It's a fixed point on the Earth. Magnetic north is where your compass points based on the Earth's magnetic field. Disabling True North and using magnetic north should help to calibrate the compass on ...
