More than a decade of satellite monitoring has mapped Earth’s magnetic field as it subtly altered between 2014 and 2025 — and ...

Per the ESA, this phenomenon can be best explained by strange behaviors far within the Earth at the boundary where the ...

A notorious weak spot in Earth’s magnetic shield is growing larger and weaker. This is the conclusion of a new analysis of ...

The weak spot, known as the South Atlantic Anomaly, was identified in the 19th century and expanded in recent years.

Earth’s magnetic field is essential to life on our planet. It protects Earth from cosmic radiation and acts as a shield ...

The rotation and convection of molten iron at the center of the planet creates a dynamo effect, generating Earth's magnetic field. alxpin / iStock Swirling around the solid inner core of our planet, ...

Scientists at the Florida State University-based National High Magnetic Field Laboratory just created what they claim to be the world’s strongest magnetic field using a toilet paper roll-sized magnet ...

Today bulky and expensive superconducting magnets are used to generate the strong magnetic fields (about seven tesla) needed for precision NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance). While portable magnets have ...

How can you produce a magnet with exactly the right magnetic field? A research team now has a solution: for the first time, they have created magnets with a 3D printer. Today, manufacturing strong ...
