A powerful new technique harnesses swirling plasma inside laser-blasted microtubes to produce record-breaking magnetic fields—rivaling those near neutron stars—all within a compact laboratory setup.

The magnetic barrier that protects Earthlings from radiation almost collapsed some 565 million years ago. Here’s what saved ...

Researchers at The University of Osaka have developed a novel method for generating ultra-high magnetic fields via ...

Our planet’s gymnastics routine continues underneath our feet nearly every day, but researchers recently mapped what they say is one of the most “drastic events in the evolution of ...

In a new Nature Physics paper, researchers report the first experimental observation of the transverse Thomson effect, a key ...

An animation using data from the European Space Agency (ESA) allows you to "listen" to Earth's magnetic field being disrupted ...

Physics and Python stuff. Most of the videos here are either adapted from class lectures or solving physics problems. I ...

The impact that carved out the moon's huge South Pole-Aitken basin may explain the puzzling differences between the lunar ...

A colossal filament eruption on the sun's northeastern limb has created a 250,000-mile-long canyon of fire, triggering a ...

Our first meeting was a bit awkward. One of us is an archaeologist who studies how past peoples interacted with their environments. Two of us are geophysicists who investigate interactions between so ...

Researchers have found the first new type of magnet in nearly a century. Now, these strange "altermagnets" could help us ...

Since Galileo first observed them through his telescope in the early 1600s, sunspots have fascinated scientists.
