Most of the time, the Earth and Sun’s magnetic fields are misaligned, leaving our planet’s field less open to the aurora-causing effects of the solar wind. However, towards the equinox, the two fields ...

Barnard's Star is a small, dim star of the type that astronomers call red dwarfs. Consequently, even though it is one of the ...

Scientists in Spain have investigated the total or partial interruptions of ribbons that connect solar cells in modules and have proposed a classification based on their type and location.

Iridium-doped iron-cobalt (Fe-Co-Ir) alloys, previously identified through machine learning, have been shown to have enhanced magnetic properties, surpassing even the widely used pure Fe-Co alloy.

Over the past decade, scientists have detected a puzzling phenomenon: radio pulses coming from within our Milky Way galaxy ...

Abstract: In this study, we developed a measurement method for the temperature and magnetic field dependences of the critical currents in full-width REBCO tapes using a 5 kA pulsed current. The ...

Astronomers say they have traced a mysterious pulsing in the Milky Way to a surprising source: a dead star locked in a dance ...

In this scenario, alternative navigation techniques must be used. One alternative method, Magnetic Navigation or MagNav, involves measuring the Earth's magnetic anomaly field and matching this to a ...

Walking on a hilltop in an all-but-deserted town in Southwest Mississippi, a man searched for lost graves. Most graves in the area are unmarked, so he relies on copper, steel and the Earth's magnetic ...

Merging some esoteric physics principles with an advanced instrument creates a magnetic microscope with resolution better ...

Since its launch on March 12, 2015, NASA’s MMS, or Magnetospheric Multiscale, mission has been rewriting our understanding of magnetic reconnection, a key physical process that is important across the ...
