The Earth’s magnetosphere is a protective shroud that blocks charged particles and cosmic rays blasted out by the Sun. The ...

A phenomenon previously thought to be exclusive to the Sun has been observed near Earth for the first time: magnetic ...

A strange phenomenon thought to only exist near the Sun has been detected in Earth's magnetic field for the first time.

Scientists find baby loggerheads feel Earth’s magnetic field to know where they are, reshaping our understanding of sea ...

For experimental physicists, the latest measurement of the muon is the best of times. For theorists there's still work to do.

Abstract: Permanent-magnet (PM) biased magnetic bearings use a magnet to produce the bias field rather than applying a bias current, thereby eliminating the associated electrical power losses and heat ...

Geologists discovered ancient rocks in Greenland that preserve the oldest known traces of Earth’s early magnetic field.

Scientists studying Earth's magnetic field have discovered that its electric heartbeat flows in the opposite direction from what long-standing models predict. Earth is surrounded by a vast magnetic ...

The SQUIRE team sees this as only the beginning. The long-term vision is a space-ground network of quantum sensors that work ...

Abstract: In this paper, the working principle of cavity optomechanical system is analyzed, and a new chip-scale magnetic field sensor based on frequency readout cavity optomechanical system is ...
