For the first time, astronomers have succeeded in observing the magnetic field around a young star where planets are thought to be forming. The team was able to use dust to measure the ...

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not ...

Astronomers have finally unlocked a crucial piece of the planet formation puzzle by detecting the magnetic fingerprint of a ...

Astronomers have succeeded in observing the magnetic field around a young star where planets are thought to be forming. The team was able to use dust to measure the three-dimensional structure ...

How do you dust a star for prints? Scientists have the answer to this strange question: by reconstructing the magnetic field ...

but it's still close enough to the planet that the magnetic field is neat and orderly, more like a bar magnet. Farther out in the tail, the lines of Earth's magnetic field have been stretched and ...

ALMA observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD 142527. The white bars show the directions of the magnetic field revealed by the orientation of the dust grains. The strength of the magnetic ...

Planets originate from protoplanetary disks, circulating disks of gas and dust that develop around young stars, a recent ...

Safety critical components for aircraft and Formula 1 racing cars could one day be 3D printed via a new technique, developed ...
