Astronomers have successfully captured Neptune's auroras for the first time, utilizing the combined capabilities of the James ...

But in the magnetosphere collisions between particles are rare, and scattering across the magnetic field is most effective when there are electromagnetic waves at frequencies of a few millihertz ...

But as you venture farther and farther into space, the compass behavior can change. A Compass in Earth's Orbit Earth’s magnetic field, called the magnetosphere, bubbles out thousands of miles beyond ...

The region around a body where its magnetic field influences space is known as its magnetosphere. Jupiter’s magnetic field is so vast that its magnetosphere extends out as far as the orbit of ...

interacts with its magnetic field. When this complex structure encountered Earth’s magnetosphere, it compressed the magnetosphere and triggered an intense geomagnetic storm. This same process ...

The Analyzer for Cusp Electrons (ACE) is designed to measure electron activity in the region of the northern magnetospheric ...

Multi-spacecraft scientific missions for space physics have been flown since the 1960s with early missions such as IMP, VELA, ...

Once outside the magnetosphere’s protection, astronauts are vulnerable to radiation and so require additional protection. It is thought that Mars may have once had a protective magnetic field ...
