Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those ...

Collaboration to Deliver Superconducting Magnets up to 30 Tesla Through this partnership with the MagLab, Quantum ...

But powerful magnets are usually large and energy hungry. Chukun Gao at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich and her colleagues sought to build a small ultra-strong magnet that would ...

Astronomers have detected strange "wobbles" in the light curve of a super bright supernova, hinting that a magnetar was born inside the extreme stellar explosion.

When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...

Strong magnets tend to be large and power-hungry, but a new design has produced a powerful magnet that fits in the palm of ...

The relationship between friction and load, quantified three centuries ago, has an exception when the interaction causes ...

(Javier Zayas Photography/Moment/Getty Images) A new study may have solved a long-standing mystery about the Moon's magnetism: Why do lunar rocks brought back by the Apollo missions show evidence of ...

Spacecraft reentry environments lead to high magnetic Reynolds numbers, resulting in complex dynamics for magnetic flow ...

Scientists from Oxford University finally explain why some Moon rocks show intense ancient magnetism. Titanium-rich rocks caused brief bursts in the lunar magnetic field.

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine have been asked to conduct a study on high-magnetic-field science and technology. The primary goal of the Committee on the Current Status ...

It is not known when humans first noticed the attraction or repulsion between pieces of magnetic material. The first important device depending on these forces was the magnetic compass, which is ...
