Researchers studying decades of earthquake data say they have found the first evidence that, in addition to spinning backward ...

Earth’s inner core is changing shape, scientists have found.

Only certain materials, such as iron, feel a magnetic force. Permanent magnets can come in lots of different shapes and sizes. Bar magnets and horseshoe magnets are two of the most common shapes ...

In contrast, Croat’s melt spinning method allowed for a cheaper manufacturing process and produced a wider range of magnet shapes, notably thin-walled ring magnets that proved ideal for use in ...

The overall idea of the display is similar to a kinetic sand art table, in which a ball traces out shapes in a pile of sand. In [Moritz]’s project, the magnetic viewing film is the sand ...
