For nearly two centuries, scientists have wondered if Earth’s rotation through its magnetic field could produce electricity.

It is a common grade school experiment to wind some wire around ... The coil is fed with AC. The magnetic field from the coil induces an opposite field in the copper ring that is out of phase ...

A controversial device that most scientists said was impossible has successfully generated electricity from the Earth's ...

The bigger the current the stronger the magnetic field and hence the stronger the electromagnet. Hazard Consequence Control measures Water Electric shock Do not set up the experiment near taps ...

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

Scientists have developed a tiny flower-shaped structure that’s made of a nickel-iron alloy to concentrate and locally ...

A trio of physicists from Princeton University, CIT's Jet Propulsion Laboratory and Spectral Sensor Solutions, all in the U.S ...

Experiments suggest an unusual magnetic material could help harness energy from Earth’s rotation. But not everyone is ...

With today’s data rates of only a few hundred megabytes per second, access to digital information remains relatively slow. Initial experiments have already shown a promising new strategy: Magnetic ...

In an ultra-cold, high-magnetic-field setting, ZrTe5 defies expectations by showing quantum heat oscillations. Researchers ...

In theory, as Earth spins through its magnetic field, any conductive material placed on its surface should experience a force ...

"Metamaterials are artificially produced materials with microstructures whose dimensions are smaller than the electromagnetic ... so magnetic fields deflect the electrons and make the experiments ...
