Our simulation helped us understand that magnetic fields are propping up the disk material, making it fluffier." As the simulation zooms in, the researchers can see the dance of radiation ...

The average Hackaday reader likely knows, at least in the academic sense, what a magnetic field looks like. But as the gelatinous orbs in our skull can perceive only a tiny fraction of the EM ...

Surprising differences in the two so-called Large Low-Velocity Provinces may risk instability in Earth's protective magnetic field.

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

Magnetars are neutron stars characterized by some of the most powerful magnetic fields in the Universe, as well as their intense X-ray and gamma-ray emissions and outbursts. An international team ...

Plasma physics is the study of charged particles and fluids interacting with self-consistent electric and magnetic fields. It is a basic research ... of plasma research—theoretical, computer ...

In a comprehensive experimental study, an international team of researchers has confirmed the calculations of a leading ...

In a nitrogen-vacancy center microscope, the defect reacts to static and fluctuating magnetic fields, allowing scientists ... of classically inaccessible simulation if we can learn to control ...
