A University of California, Berkeley, geophysicist has made the first-ever measurement of the strength of the magnetic field inside Earth’s core, 1,800 miles underground. The magnetic field strength ...

Two ways of measuring how fast the universe is expanding disagree, a puzzle known as the Hubble tension. Tiny magnetic fields from the Big Bang may offer a solution.

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Researchers at the University of Colorado Boulder (CU Boulder) have made a significant advance in magnetic field measurement. They ...

Insight-HXMT’s discovery of the fundamental electron cyclotron absorption line near 146 keV for the first Galactic ultraluminous X-ray pulsar Swift J 0243.6+6124. Neutron stars have the strongest ...

Earth's magnetic field is generated by the churn of its liquid nickel-iron outer core, but it is not a constant feature. Every so often, the magnetic north and south poles swap places in what are ...

For just over two years, a scalar magnetometer developed by Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) and the Space Research Institute (IWF) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences has been on its way to ...

Far beneath the Atlantic, a vast distortion in Earth’s magnetic shield has been charted with a clarity that would have been unthinkable a decade ago. The South Atlantic Anomaly, a sprawling weak zone ...

The 35.6-tesla magnet dwarfs hospital MRI machines and opens new frontiers in materials science and life sciences research.

Astronomers have measured the strongest magnetic field ever found in the universe. The honor goes to a powerful type of neutron star, with a surface magnetic field of over 1.6 billion Tesla. The newly ...
