Two German physicists have reimagined how to create powerful and uniform magnetic fields using compact permanent magnets. By overcoming the limitations of the well-known Halbach array, which works ...

Scientists used some of the most advanced plasma simulations ever created to uncover how the universe builds enormous magnetic fields out of turbulence. The discovery could reshape our understanding ...

Researchers found that critically boron-doped diamond films can develop intrinsic electronic granularity, producing three ...

Imagine a laptop that remains cool, a phone capable of lasting for days on a single charge, or a memory chip engineered to ...

Stephin Merritt has had a cult following for 30 years, but few expected his inclusion on the New York Times list of the 30 ...

An imperfect diamond is perfect for sensing Earth’s magnetic field from space. A quantum device used a diamond’s defects to map Earth’s magnetic field from the International Space Station. Just 10 ...

Barreling through the universe with incredible power and speed, galactic cosmic rays are a major source of radiation in space. But thanks to Earth’s strong magnetic field, these charged particles ...

As black holes feed, they pull material into a disk around them. The material orbiting in this disk gets heated to extreme temperatures, and so it becomes a plasma — a state of matter in which some of ...

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. (AP) — Lunar rocks collected by Apollo astronauts more than half a century ago are providing a fresh take on the moon's mysterious magnetic field, scientists reported Wednesday.
