Somewhere between Google Earth glitches and ancient prophecy, a new kind of internet mystery has taken hold. It doesn’t come ...

External magnetic fields have been used to vertically align ensembles of silicon microwires coated with ferromagnetic nickel films. X-ray diffraction and image analysis techniques were used to ...

A method is presented for controlling the field-directed self-assembly of colloidal magnetic core–shell nanoparticles into three-dimensional (3D) crystalline superstructures with nanoscale feature ...

Magnetic fields are produced by electrical currents that are generated by various astrophysical objects. The study of magnetic fields seeks to understand their origin, as well as the acceleration ...

This paper presents the design, fabrication, and measurement results of an electromagnetic biaxial vector-graphic scanning micromirror. Instead of utilizing locally distributed magnetic fields from ...

New compact semianalytical expressions of the scalar potential and magnetic fields produced by a radially polarized permanent magnet are described in this paper by using Coulombian approach. It uses ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests ...

Magnetic reconnection -- when magnetic field lines converge, break apart and reconnect in an explosive physical process -- energizes particles and generates high-speed flows.

Northern lights may be visible in these 15 US States tonight due to continuing geomagnetic storm conditions. Here are the best places to see them.
