Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects ...

Melexis has launched a free, online simulation tool for magnetic sensor evaluation and module design. The magnetic design simulator allows engineers to design and simulate their own magnets based on ...

This is a computer simulation of gas (in yellow) falling into a black hole (too small to be seen). Twin jets are also shown with magnetic field lines. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...

Scientists have discovered that Earth’s magnetosphere is charged opposite to what was once believed. The area of space influenced by Earth’s magnetic field is called the magnetosphere. Within this ...

Deep in the core of most galaxies, hidden by spinning clouds of gas and dust, black holes spin like cosmic engines. These giants — some are billions of times heavier than our sun — can shoot out ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...
