Magnetic, gravitational and electrical fields are all 2D representations of a 3D world. For this reason particular conventions are agreed upon within the physics world. When the directions go beyond ...

New research indicates that matter ejected during the supernova death of a star can fall back to neutrons stars, giving rise ...

Earth's magnetic field occasionally bursts into song — but these compositions are written with electromagnetic radiation, not sound waves. When converted to audio signals, though, these strange ...

The reversal could actually have a beneficial effect on Earth. The sun is on the verge of a significant event: a magnetic field reversal. The sun undergoes such a reversal every 11 years ...

Some of the most sensitive methods of measuring magnetic fields use interactions of resonant light with atomic vapour. Recent developments in this vibrant field have led to improvements in ...

ALMA observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD 142527. The white bars show the directions of the magnetic field revealed by the orientation of the dust grains. The strength of the magnetic ...

It was originally developed for CERN scientists. Rolex Magnetic fields are one of the most common factors negatively affecting the accuracy of a mechanical watch. Internal watch parts made of metal ...

Electric and magnetic fields are important factors to be considered when designing transmission lines. They occur in nature and have become much more prevalent in our everyday lives through man-made ...

“The current behaviour of magnetic north is something that we have never observed before,” William Brown, a global geomagnetic field modeler at the British Geological Survey, said in a statemen ...

the magnetic north pole’s position is determined by Earth’s magnetic field, which is in constant motion. Over the past few decades, magnetic north’s movement has been unprecedented — it ...

Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) have made a significant advance in magnetic field measurement. They have developed a new technique that uses atoms as highly precise ...

Star formation in the early universe was a vigorous process that created gigantic stars. Called Population III stars, these ...
