A dramatic shift in Earth’s magnetic field occurred roughly 41,000 years ago during what scientists now call the Laschamps ...

A new model uncovers how Earth’s liquid core has sustained its magnetic field since the planet’s beginnings, offering new ...

Researchers have created DNA-like magnetic nanostructures that form strong inter-helix magnetic bonds. These produce topological textures in the magnetic field, opening the door to the next generation ...

Scientists asked a simple question: when Earth’s magnetic field gets unsettled from solar storms, is there a correlation with ...

The first image of a black hole was of M87*, the supermassive monster at the center of the enormous elliptical galaxy M87.

Event Horizon Telescope data reveal the magnetic field around M87* shifted, weakened and then flipped, defying theoretical expectations.

The sun’s surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed ...

An electric field transforms an iron oxide nanoparticle suspension into a model for the emergence of complex dissipative structures. Researchers at Aalto University have shown that a nanoparticle ...

THERMAL instability during the chemical silvering of glass produces Bénard convection patterns in the deposited silver layer. An unstable condition produced by cooling the silver solution to about 10° ...

Researchers at Aalto University have shown that a nanoparticle suspension can serve as a simple model for studying the formation of patterns and structures in more complicated non-equilibrium systems, ...
