Earth’s magnetic field protects the planet from space weather like cosmic radiation and charged particles from the Sun. The southern Atlantic anomaly shrinks that protective bubble, but not so much ...

Satellite data reveal that a weak region in Earth's magnetic field has grown by an area roughly half the size of continental Europe in the last 10 years.

How could such a small body with a weak core have created magnetic fields as strong as Earth’s? Now, a team led by researchers at MIT may have found the answer. Their study, published in Science ...

As someone who studies materials, Lu Li knows people want to hear about the exciting new applications and technologies his ...

To say that the Earth's magnetic field is important would be an understatement. It's one of the reasons we live on this pretty little rock tumbling through space, and it also gives us the gorgeous ...

An unusual reduction in the strength of the Earth’s magnetic field between 591 and 565 million years ago coincided with a significant increase in the oxygen levels in the atmosphere and oceans, ...

Scientists made these observations using data from the European Space Agency’s Swarm mission, which relies on three identical satellites to measure magnetic signals from Earth’s interior and oceans.

The study of mesons under the influence of strong magnetic fields in nuclear matter has emerged as a pivotal area in contemporary nuclear and particle physics. In these extreme conditions, mesonic ...

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

The Swarm satellites of the European Space Agency have tracked the grown of a weak spot in the magnetic field of the Earth.

Protective force fields exist and you’re already living inside one. About 1,800 miles beneath the ground you’ll reach the border of Earth’s outer core, a subterranean ocean of liquid iron and nickel 1 ...
