A new trick for illuminating the internal ordering within a special type of magnet could help engineers build better ...

Earth's magnetic field dramatically flipped a little more than 40,000 years ago. We can now experience this epic upheaval, thanks to a clever interpretation of information collected by the European ...

Engineers developed an engine prototype which could reach unprecedented speeds, cutting down interplanetary travel time.

The development of the engine is expected to make interplanetary trips much faster and expand humanity's access to worlds ...

Russia's State Atomic Energy Corporation, Rosatom, recently developed a new spacecraft engine with impressive specifications.

Scientists at Rosatom have unveiled a plasma electric rocket engine that is claimed to be capable of propelling spacecraft to ...

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 ...

Earth’s magnetic field, generated by movements within its molten iron core, serves as a protective shield against solar winds and cosmic radiation. However, over the past century, scientists have ...

The Sun is preparing for a major event: the reversal of its magnetic field. This phenomenon marks a turning point in the solar cycle, signaling the transition from solar maximum to solar minimum. This ...
