A new model uncovers how Earth’s liquid core has sustained its magnetic field since the planet’s beginnings, offering new ...

For desert ants, Earth’s magnetic field isn’t just a compass: It may also sculpt their brains. Stepping outside their nest for the first time, young ants need to learn how to forage. The ants train ...

Surprise findings suggest sunspots and solar flares could be generated by a magnetic field within the Sun's outermost layers. If confirmed, the findings could help scientists better predict space ...

When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an affiliate commission. Here’s how it works. As cosmic strings — exotic wrinkles in space-time left over from the earliest moments of the Big ...

Magnetothermal decomposition devices use a combination of heat and magnetic fields to break down organic materials or other substances into s ...

We may be able to predict deadly tsunamis using their magnetic fields. Because seawater is electrically conductive, when significant amounts of it move at once, it generates a small magnetic field.

Every minute matters in the event of a tsunami, and over the years we have seen a number of interesting ideas around how these giant waves might be better predicted ahead of time. These include ...

A small, faint brown dwarf located 37 light-years from Earth is the coldest on record to produce radio waves. Usually, ultracool brown dwarfs do not produce radio emissions because they do not possess ...

A new study finds the magnetic field generated by a tsunami can be detected a few minutes earlier than changes in sea level and could improve warnings of these giant waves. A new study finds the ...
