In a world chasing cleaner energy, a group of physicists may have uncovered a surprising new way to make power: by tapping ...

A vast and evolving anomaly in Earth’s magnetic field, situated above South America and the southern Atlantic Ocean, ...

It’s not much of a stretch to say that Earth’s inner structure, especially the innermost spherical core, has stupefied ...

The Northern Lights will transform the typically gloomy skies above the UK with streaks of pink, purple and green this week.

The development proves one of the leading theories behind animals’ incredible ability to tap into Earth’s magnetic field as a source of locational information. Until now, this sixth sense ...

A swath of northern U.S. states may be able to see aurora borealis on Friday night, as high-speed winds from a spot on the sun’s surface may disrupt Earth’s magnetic field, according to the ...

It looked still to you before because you were moving with it. We have this same problem with electric and magnetic fields. Depending on your reference frame, what appears to be a magnetic force ...

In this study, researchers found that by adjusting the maximum external magnetic field (H max) and thermal history, they could control the material's magnetic reversal. When H max was high enough ...

Continent-sized structures of mineral protruding from the lower mantle towards Earth's outer core may be contributing to an instability of our planet's magnetic field. The two odd formations – one ...
