This week, see what makes loggerhead sea turtles “dance,” track a cosmic “ghost particle,” uncover an ancient basilica, and ...

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

Over time, batteries break down. Studying this process in-depth with imaging techniques may help us improve the lifespan of ...

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

Hydrogel is something that most of us are familiar with from it being used in contact lenses, burn dressings, and hair gel.

Cosmic forensic experts are reconstructing the magnetic field around an infant star from the planet-forming disk of gas and ...

New research indicates that matter ejected during the supernova death of a star can fall back to neutrons stars, giving rise to mysterious "low-field magnetars." ...

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

Imagine a towering skyscraper made entirely of magnetic balls an incredible fusion of creativity, engineering, and innovation. Using magnetic forces, these balls are carefully arranged to form a ...

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) have made a significant advance in magnetic field measurement. They have developed a new technique that uses atoms as highly precise ...

A magnetic field is the effect we can see from the movement of charges or the spin of electrons. The fields themselves can be static or changing. A field diagram can be used to show the interactions ...

Charged particles will only experience a force in a magnetic field if they are moving. The direction of the force is both perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field and the direction of the ...
