A powerful new technique harnesses swirling plasma inside laser-blasted microtubes to produce record-breaking magnetic fields ...
They then oriented the cylinder in a north-south direction set at a 57° angle. That made it perpendicular to both the Earth's rotational motion and the Earth's magnetic field.

In essence, it merges memory and physical changes. This particular implementation doesn't seem to be especially useful—it's much too big to be a practical form of memory, and the physical ...
You usually can't hear or see the Earth's magnetic field, but researchers in Denmark found a clever way to capture its "groans." ...
Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.
Magnetic forces without magnets: Physicist calculates field strengths in the early universe Date: January 2, 2013 Source: Ruhr-Universitaet-Bochum Summary: Magnets have practically become everyday ...
For the last 170 years, a mysteriously weak patch of Earth’s magnetic field has grown in size, causing some geologists to think that the planet is gearing up to flip its magnetic poles. Now ...
Magnetic reconnection -- when magnetic field lines converge, break apart and reconnect in an explosive physical process -- energizes particles and generates high-speed flows.
NASA has been monitoring an anomaly in Earth's magnetic field, growing 40,000 miles above the planet's surface between South America and southwest Africa.
