Small magnetic waves have been discovered at Earth's core, with each oscillation working on a seven year cycle. Earth's magnetic field is generated by electric currents generated by the movement of ...

Earth’s wily magnetic field is keeping scientists on their toes. A team of scientists in Belgium and France have discovered a new type of magnetic wave—called a Magneto-Coriolis wave—that courses ...

Scientists believe the source of a record-breaking solar radio signal sat near a "helmet streamer," a giant arching magnetic ...

Spin waves are collective oscillations of electron spins in magnetic materials. They represent a quantum mechanical phenomenon in which electrons’ angular momentum or spin fluctuates in a coordinated ...

Far below the deepest boreholes, Earth’s core appears to keep its own rhythm, a slow magnetic throb that repeats roughly every seven years. Using a mix of satellite and ground measurements, ...

Today's computers store information in magnetic hard drives, keeping files safe even when the device is powered off. But to run programs and process information, computers rely on electricity. Each ...

A Queen’s University Belfast scientist has led an international team to the ground-breaking discovery of why the Sun’s magnetic waves strengthen and grow as they emerge from its surface, which could ...

Small magnetic waves discovered in Earth’s core could help illuminate what is going on deep inside our planet. Earth’s core has a solid inner layer and an outer layer made of liquid metal. The ...

Researchers at NYU Abu Dhabi have discovered new large-scale waves moving deep inside the Sun, driven by magnetic fields far below the surface. These waves provide a window into parts of the Sun that ...

BepiColombo is slowly uncovering more and more fun facts about Mercury as it continues its preliminary mission. One of the more interesting things found so far is a magnetic "chorus" that appears ...
