Seeking to mimic self-assembly processes that occur naturally, RIKEN researchers have demonstrated that the self-assembly of ...

Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory are harnessing the power of computers to ...

A vast and evolving anomaly in Earth’s magnetic field, situated above South America and the southern Atlantic Ocean, ...

A coil of wire, or solenoid, consists of a wire coiled up into a spiral shape. When an electric current flows, the shape of the magnetic field is very similar to the field of a bar magnet.

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

It explains how electrons are accelerated by an electron gun and then deflected by a magnetic field created by Helmholtz coils. The experiment measures the mass of an electron by analyzing the ...

A flower-shaped structure only a few micrometers in size made of a nickel-iron alloy can concentrate and locally enhance ...
