In fact, the discovery actually supports a key part of the theory about how chorus waves work. Using data from the ...

For the first time, astronomers have succeeded in observing the magnetic field around a young star where planets are thought ...

Astronomers have succeeded in observing the magnetic field around a young star where planets are thought to be forming. The team was able to use dust to measure the three-dimensional structure ...

Planets originate from protoplanetary disks, circulating disks of gas and dust that develop around young stars, a recent ...

How do you dust a star for prints? Scientists have the answer to this strange question: by reconstructing the magnetic field ...

Astronomers have finally unlocked a crucial piece of the planet formation puzzle by detecting the magnetic fingerprint of a young star’s protoplanetary disk. Using ALMA, researchers observed how dust ...

Even in the fuzzy, probabilistic world of quantum physics, though, there’s a limit on how small you can go. Both ...

Named after its cat eye metallic effect, this design is achieved by using a magnet on gel nails. Unlike most nail art, it ...

ALMA observations of the protoplanetary disk around HD 142527. The white bars show the directions of the magnetic field revealed by the orientation of the dust grains. The strength of the magnetic ...

Particle detectors play a crucial role in our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the universe. They allow ...
