This video explains how magnets work and how magnetic fields are generated by the movement of electric charges. Magnetic ...

More than a decade of satellite monitoring has mapped Earth’s magnetic field as it subtly altered between 2014 and 2025 — and ...

Event Horizon Telescope data reveal the magnetic field around M87* shifted, weakened and then flipped, defying theoretical expectations.

Earth’s magnetic field protects the planet from space weather like cosmic radiation and charged particles from the Sun. The ...

NASA's MMS (Magnetospheric Multiscale) mission, consisting of four identical satellites flying in formation, constantly ...

An anomaly that has been weakening the field for the past 11 years is showing signs of ballooning up and splitting apart.

Magnetic heating could be playing a much more prominent role in the evolution of neutron stars than previously expected, claim astrophysicists in Spain and the US. The researchers looked at data ...

Earth’s magnetic field is essential to life on our planet. It protects Earth from cosmic radiation and acts as a shield ...

A weak zone in Earth’s magnetic field, known as the South Atlantic Anomaly, has expanded at an alarming rate over the past ...

Like a shaggy dog in springtime, some black holes have to shed. New computer simulations reveal how black holes might discard their magnetic fields. Unlike dogs with their varied fur coats, isolated ...

Cutting a bar magnet in half won't get rid of its poles. It'll just produce two magnets, each with a north pole that will be attracted to the other magnet's south pole, and vice versa. It's this ...
