Scientists studying lunar samples have finally resolved a decades-long debate about the Moon’s ancient magnetic field.

A newly mapped form of superconductivity in uranium ditelluride emerges only under extremely strong magnetic fields, defying long-held expectations about how superconductors behave.

Spintronics—a technology that harnesses the electron's magnetic quantum states to carry information—could pave the way for a new generation of ultra-energy-efficient electronics. Yet a major challenge ...

Deep beneath the surface of the sun lies a razor-thin transition zone called the tachocline. Despite being only a sliver in size, the tachocline is believed to be the engine room of the un’s magnetic ...

Scientists discover that the Earth's magnetic poles can take up to 70,000 years to reverse, much longer than previously ...

Physicists weren’t sure why Moon rocks brought back during the Apollo missions are more strongly magnetized than models predict ...

Yale researchers may have solved a longstanding puzzle as to why certain metallic meteorites show traces of a magnetic field — a finding that may shed light on the formation of magnetic dynamos at the ...

Most planets have a magnetic field, like Earth, but with different strength or structure. It shields the planet from the energetic particles of the solar wind. The origin of the magnetic field is ...

Earth’s magnetic field has long been framed as a planetary force field, a protective bubble that keeps the worst of the Sun’s radiation at bay. Increasingly, though, scientists are finding that this ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism. This discovery is ...

Scientists at the University of Manchester have discovered that placing magnetic films on atomically thin molybdenum ...

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how those tool magnetizer/demagnetizer gadgets worked, [Electromagnetic Videos] has produced a pretty succinct and informative video on the subject. The ...
