Astronomers using the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) — a planet-scale array of eight ground-based radio telescopes (ALMA, APEX, the IRAM 30-m telescope,...
Magnetic interactions between the newfound planet, designated Gliese 1151b, and its host star are the likely source of low-frequency radio emission recently...
A team of researchers in Germany has detected biomagnetic fields associated with electrical activity in a species of carnivorous plant called the Venus...
Spinning black holes store rotational energy that can be extracted; when a black hole is immersed in an externally supplied magnetic field, reconnection...
An international team of experimental and theoretical physicists from Austria and Switzerland has investigated what happens when a dipolar supersolid is...
Astronomers using the LOw Frequency Array (LOFAR), a large radio telescope network located mainly in the Netherlands, have detected circularly polarized...
Astronomers using the Low-Frequency Array (LOFAR) radio telescope have discovered a new brown dwarf, a substellar object not quite massive enough to fuse...
Solar storms strip a planet’s atmosphere over time, and only a strong magnetosphere would be able to provide maximum protection. Lunar samples gathered...
The crusts of the Moon, Mercury and many small bodies in the Solar System are magnetized. Although the magnetizing field is commonly attributed to that...
The solar corona, the outermost part of the Sun’s atmosphere, is shaped and mysteriously heated to millions of degrees by the magnetic field of our star....
Even small changes in the direction of the magnetic field can switch the electrical properties of a paramagnetic rare-earth material — the holmium-doped...
Astronomers using NASA’s HERSCHEL (Helium Resonance Scattering in the Corona and Heliosphere) sounding rocket have obtained global images of the helium...
The heliosphere is a giant magnetic bubble that contains our Solar System, the solar wind and the solar magnetic field. Outside the heliosphere is the...
Strange behavior of Earth’s magnetic field in the South Atlantic region isn’t a sign of the upcoming magnetic field reversal, according to new research...
An international team of radio astronomers has used data from NSF’s Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to generate a detailed map of the magnetic...
Changes in the direction of Earth’s internally generated magnetic field may take place 10 times faster than previously thought, according to new research...
Using several instruments on ESO’s Very Large Telescope, VLT Survey Telescope and the New Technology Telescope, astronomers have discovered giant spots...
Using five years of magnetic field data obtained by NASA’s MAVEN (Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN) spacecraft, a team of scientists has created...
