The engineering of optically synthesized magnetic fields allows neutral atoms to emulate charged behavior, paving the way for ...

By weaving magnet-responsive fibers into fabric, scientists have created textiles that move, flex, and feel, bringing ...

New research conducted by an international team of physicists has found that high-energy gamma rays might offer the key to unlocking the mysteries of the sun's magnetic fields. The study, led by the ...

Researchers in Japan have developed a highly-sensitive magnetic Barkhausen noise (MBN) measurement system to understand the energy loss mechanisms in soft magnetic materials, which can be easily ...

The magnetic fields that formed in the very early stages of the Universe, may have been billions of times weaker than a small fridge magnet, with strengths comparable to magnetism generated by neurons ...

Physicists have begun using the gigantic magnetic fields of galaxy clusters to observe distant black holes in their search for an elusive particle that has stumped scientists for decades. (Nanowerk ...

Magnetic fields play an important—if sometimes underappreciated—part in planetary systems. Without a strong magnetic field, planets can end up as a barren wasteland like Mars, or they could indirectly ...

The U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) is aware of the need for reliable navigation and the susceptibility of the Global Positioning System (GPS) to ineffectiveness due to jamming. As a result, the ...
