Who knew that magnetic fields could be so useful? Astronomers are able to use magnetic fields to map our environment within ...

The axion quasiparticle forms when the interaction between the electric field and magnetization oscillates in a specific ...

In 1862, James Clerk Maxwell published his famous Maxwell’s equations. This was at a time when humans were just starting to ...

Scientists have found that it’s possible to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation through its own magnetic field using a magnetic tube resting stationary on the planet’s surface.

For this, electric fields have an advantage, since they're more amenable to controlling magnetic devices than are magnetic fields—easier to manipulate and implement. They would also be much ...

How it works Artist’s impression of how an ultrafast disruption of superconductivity in a YBCO thin film triggers an abrupt ...

A long-elusive, hypothetical subatomic particle called the axion can be simulated and potentially detected in a type of thin material.

Mars' magnetic mystery may finally have a solution—scientists now think the Red Planet’s ancient magnetic field only existed ...

In a radiation protection study commissioned by the German government, all electric cars analysed complied with the ...

Scientists have long puzzled over why Mars, once protected by a global magnetic field like Earth, now shows only a magnetic ...
