A new trick for illuminating the internal ordering within a special type of magnet could help engineers build better ...

This week, see what makes loggerhead sea turtles “dance,” track a cosmic “ghost particle,” uncover an ancient basilica, and more.

This is an article from Curious Kids, a series for children. The Conversation is asking kids to send in questions they’d like an expert to answer. All questions are welcome – serious, weird or wacky!

Dancing turtles have proved for the first time that some animals use Earth’s magnetic field to create a personal map of their favorite spots, scientists said Wednesday. Some animals that migrate ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) and Type One Energy announced an agreement that gives Type One Energy an exclusive license to use CFS' groundbreaking high-temperature superconducting (HTS) cable ...

is where geomagnetic field lines are vertical. As of this month, the distance between the magnetic dip pole and the geographic pole is about 300 miles. The U.S. Geological Survey says the two used ...

Your navigation system just got a critical update, one that happens periodically because Earth’s magnetic north pole keeps moving. Here’s what to know.

“The way the model is built, our forecast is mostly an extrapolation given our current knowledge of the Earth’s magnetic field.” The scientists released two models on December 17: the ...

Combining experiments in microfluidic devices and computer simulation, this study provides a valuable analysis of the relevant parameters that determine the motility of (multicellular) magnetotactic ...

Scientists have found an elusive third form of magnetism that could help solve a longstanding puzzle about superconductors.

Scientists report that a new class of magnetism, called altermagnetism, can increase memory device operation speeds by up to ...
