Antiferromagnetic (AF) materials are made up of atoms or molecules with atomic spins that align in antiparallel directions of ...

Like Earth, Mars once had a strong magnetic field that shielded its thick atmosphere from the solar wind. But now only the magnetic imprint remains. What's long baffled scientists, though, is why this ...

Tiny bits of Earth’s atmosphere have been drifting to the moon for billions of years, guided by Earth’s magnetic field.

It used to be thought that there were more volatiles than expected in lunar soil because they escaped Earth before it had a stable magnetic field. Researchers who ran simulations of these atmospheric ...

Axions are hypothetical light particles that could solve two different physics problems, as they could explain why some ...

Artifacts from the Iron Age have revealed an intense historical magnetic anomaly in the Middle East. Could using a similar approach elsewhere help us unravel the mysteries of Earth's magnetic field?

Earth’s magnetic north pole has shifted toward Russia, prompting updates to GPS and navigation systems worldwide. Scientists track this invisible movement to keep technology accurate.

Neutron stars explained through stellar remnants and collapsed stars, revealing extreme density, gravity, magnetism, and ...

Computer simulation of a one-sided magnetic field on early Mars based on data from a study led by the University of Texas Institute for Geophysics. The study could explain the unusual magnetic imprint ...
