On the basis of the analysis of the obtained data, it is possible to assert that the magnetic field distorts the result of gravitational lensing. Therefore, the magnetar is regarded as a gravitational ...

Two German physicists have unveiled a compact magnet layout that outperforms the famed Halbach array, delivering stronger, ...

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 ...

Fluorination has been instrumental for tuning the properties of several two-dimensional (2D) materials, including graphene, h-BN, and MoS2. However, its potential application has not yet been explored ...

A conceptual design of curved superconducting magnet for a carbon therapy gantry has been proposed. The design can reduce the gantry's size and weight and make it more comparable with gantries used ...

New NASA research demonstrates that 540 million years of Earth’s magnetic field changes have corresponded to surface ...
