While Earth’s magnetic field resembles a bar magnet neatly aligned with its axis ... create specific patterns that could be detected in laboratory experiments using X-ray diffraction to reveal how ...

The reason behind this has to do with the solar cycle. Like a bar magnet, the Sun also has a magnetic field with north and south poles. The magnetic field exists due to the constant movement of ...

Scientists have developed a single-cell green microalgae coated with magnetic material. This miniature robot was put to the test: would the microalgae with its magnetic coating be able to swim through ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...

New magnetic nanoparticles in the shape of a cube sandwiched between two pyramids represent a breakthrough for treating ovarian tumors and possibly other types of cancer, according to the Oregon State ...

Most of the time, the Earth and Sun’s magnetic fields are misaligned, leaving our planet’s field less open to the aurora-causing effects of the solar wind. However, towards the equinox, the two fields ...

DURING the last ascent of the balloon F.NM.S. (August 18, 1934), we had the opportunity of measuring with precision the intensity of cosmic rays at altitudes of about 12,000 m., 15,000 m.

Astronomers track the sun's 11-year cycle by counting sunspots. Also, we're expecting a strong geomagnetic storm and aurora ...

A material’s response to an applied magnetic field can be characterized as diamagnetic, paramagnetic, ferromagnetic or antiferromagnetic. Four-coordinate cobalt(II) complexes possess high energy ...

Described as an exoskeleton, or a cage, the support structure surrounds the central solenoid, which is a 60-foot-tall ...

The Rays, under their current lease agreement with the city of St. Petersburg, are contracted to play three more seasons at Tropicana Field after it is repaired from the hurricane damage ...
