Deciphering the universe’s secrets is partly done through observation, but just as important are solid models of the forces ...

Scientists may have solved the mystery of why the moon shows ancient signs of magnetism although it has no magnetic field today. An impact, such as from a large asteroid, could have generated a cloud ...

A new simulation suggests a massive asteroid impact may have briefly supercharged the moon's magnetic field, leaving behind ...

Where did the moon's magnetism go? Scientists have puzzled over this question for decades, ever since orbiting spacecraft ...

There have been proposed hypotheses as to how the Moon could have developed a core dynamo. For instance, a 2022 analysis suggested that in the first billion years, when the Moon was covered in molten ...

Advancements in fusion energy modeling, including a new guiding center model, enhance plasma simulations and address key challenges for practical fusion energy.

A simple MRI scan can save lives, detecting everything from injuries to cancer and strokes. But, in the world of "Final ...

But Gallet, of France’s Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris, had his face turned toward the rocks with one goal in mind: deciphering the history of Earth’s magnetic field. This protective ...

New research reveals how dramatically Earth’s magnetic field weakened and shifted during an event called the Laschamps geomagnetic excursion, potentially influencing human evolution at a pivotal ...

The configuration of the coils generates maximum magnitude of eddy current while minimizing the background magnetic field perpendicular to the specimen surface, ideally achieving zero magnetic field ...

These spectacular lights resemble those seen on Earth, where they're generated when energetic particles interact with our planet's magnetic field, but Jupiter's auroras are believed to proceed ...
