Beijing Zhongke Journal Publising Co. Ltd. This study is led by Dr. Zhaojin Rong (Institute of Geology and Geophysics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences). The magnetic field is the fundamental field in ...

Scientists report a method to study smaller magnetospheres, sometimes just millimeters thick, in the laboratory. The new experimental platform combines the magnetic field of the Large Plasma Device ...

When Voyager 2 flew by Uranus and Neptune 40 years ago, astronomers were surprised that it detected no global dipole magnetic fields, like Earth's. The explanation: the ice giants are layered and ...

When NASA's Voyager 2 spacecraft made its way to outer regions of the solar system in the late 80's, it noticed something odd. Both of the ice giant planets, Uranus and Neptune, lacked what's known as ...

When the plasma confined in the dipole magnetic field of RT-1 contains a significant ratio of high-temperature electrons (red particles), the spontaneous formation of a chorus emission (white emission ...

The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

Learn how to visualize a magnetic field model using Python! 🧲💻 In this tutorial, we’ll walk through creating a 2D vector field to represent the magnetic forces around a dipole. Perfect for physics ...

More than half a billion years ago, Earth experienced an almost-complete collapse of its magnetic field. It began in the early Cambrian period. Then, after a period of about 15 million years, the ...
