The magnetic barrier that protects Earthlings from radiation almost collapsed some 565 million years ago. Here’s what saved ...

The research team has identified atacamite as a material with magnetocaloric properties. Natural crystals have long ...

Some planets take the expression "you're your own worst enemy" to the extreme. At least, that's what astronomers found when ...

Angular momentum is a fundamental quantity in physics that describes the rotational motion of objects. In quantum physics, it ...

Researchers mapped a pulsing mantle plume under Afar that channels molten rock upward, stretching Africa’s crust until it ...

The transient field-frequency domain of magnetic dipole in a two-layered conducting Earth has been studied. It is obtained as a summation of waveguide modes plus contributions from branch cuts in the ...

The magnetized rocks of Earth's crust and mantle, also known as the upper lithosphere, accounts for generating 6 percent of the planets magnetic field. Data from the European Space Agency's Swarm ...

Magnetic field alignment — they use Earth’s magnetic field when clouds block the stars. Using a flight simulator, researchers exposed moths to artificial night skies and magnetic fields. The moths ...

In a new paper, published in the journal Current Biology this week, Keller and colleagues confirm that bonnethead sharks can indeed use Earth’s magnetic field to navigate.

Earth’s Magnetic Field Might Weirdly Be Controlling the Air We Breathe, Scientists Say Magnetism and oxygen may intrinsically influence each other, but experts aren’t sure why.

According to the newly conducted research by NASA, the scientists found that 540 million years ago, changes in the strength of the Earth's magnetic field were correlated with the fluctuations in the ...
