The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...

The importance of coronal magnetic field measurements . As the Sun rotates, there are variations in the magnetic fields and the ability to regularly monitor the Sun’s coronal magnetic field will ...

When a magnetic field is applied, the atoms undergo energy shifts. The researchers used a laser to measure these shifts ...

One of those investigations involved a distinctive deep dive into studying the interior of the moon.

The big gap in our knowledge is that we don’t have measurements of the magnetic field in the sun’s atmosphere, its corona,” says Gibson, who is a co-author of this new study.

The Solar Orbiter spacecraft, a joint mission between the European Space Agency and NASA, is the first to venture into a ...

Today, inexpensive MEMS (Micro-Electro-Mechanical-System) devices for detecting and measuring magnetic fields (magnetometers) can measure magnetic fields down to less than +/- 1 Tesla.[2] ...

Devices taking advantage of the collective quantum behavior of spin excitations in magnetic materials—known as magnons—have ...

Magnetic field measurements in a car. Image from HPROBE. This application note says that based on the magnitude of commonly encountered external magnetic fields, the magnetic immunity of STT-MRAM ...

The strength of Earth’s magnetic field and the amount of oxygen in its atmosphere seem to be correlated—and scientists want ...

With these measurements, they were able to create a global map of the magnetic field intensity in the Sun’s corona. This map revealed how the magnetic field evolves over time and across ...
