Deep inside the Milky Way, an invisible force is quietly holding everything together — its magnetic field. Now, researchers have created one of the most detailed maps ever of this hidden structure, ...

Magnetic invisibility sounds simple in theory. Place the right materials around an object and magnetic fields flow around it as if nothing were there. Reality has been far messier. For nearly two ...

For the first time, researchers measured the magnetic pull inside a single bacterium, turning a biological mystery into hard numbers.

Apollo moon rocks show the Moon had short bursts of strong magnetism, not a long lasting magnetic field, changing how we ...

An international group of astronomers led by the University of Sydney has discovered strong magnetic fields are common in stars, not rare as previously thought, which will dramatically impact our ...

Researchers have captured the first direct, momentum-resolved evidence that certain lattice vibrations carry measurable ...

Just as the amplified magnetic field peaked, these electrons settled again, locking in the strong field’s direction. Benjamin Weiss, an MIT professor and study co-author, explains the process like ...

New results from China’s Chang’e 5 mission suggest that the Moon possessed a magnetic field well into its midlife, much longer than previously documented. In work published Jan. 1 in Science Advances, ...
