As sunspots emerge on the sun's surface close to its equator, their orientations will match the old magnetic field, while sunspots forming closer to the poles will have a magnetic field matching the ...

The magnetic barrier that protects Earthlings from radiation almost collapsed some 565 million years ago. Here’s what saved it.

In fact, the discovery actually supports a key part of the theory about how chorus waves work. Using data from the ...

The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. What causes this switch in polarity, and is it dangerous for anything on Earth? Let's take a deep dive into the ...

The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years, which marks an important stage in the solar cycle. The shift in ...

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

An international team of scientists have modelled formation and evolution of strongest magnetic fields in the Universe.

The anti-magnetic watch has its roots in aviation and engineering but it makes sense in modern everyday life, too. And now more than ever.

The northern lights are best seen between 10 p.m. and 2 a.m. local time, according to NOAA, which recommends traveling to a ...

The energy resolution limit (ERL) is a mix of parameters representing the economics of a quantum system within a sensor's ...

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 ...

With the right preparations and technological solutions in place, aviation would continue to operate safely, even during a ...
