Those two metal spheres are not decoration, they are Kelvin’s balls, part of a precise system that counteracts magnetic errors caused by steel hulls. This explains how permanent and induced magnetism ...

Ancient rocks show Earth’s magnetic field followed deep heat patterns inside the planet for hundreds of millions of years.

While we have sent probes billions of kilometers into interstellar space, humans have barely scratched the surface of our own ...

A supercooled microscopic ferromagnet proves the existence of gyroscopic magnetic behaviour that has been long sought by ...

Deep beneath the ocean floor, ancient sediments hint that Earth’s magnetic field sometimes changed far more slowly than expected.

Earth's magnetic field is generated by the churn of its liquid nickel-iron outer core, but it is not a constant feature. Every so often, the magnetic north and south poles swap places in what are ...

In A Nutshell Two massive hot regions deep beneath Africa and the Pacific Ocean have been influencing Earth’s protective ...

See inside the luxury homes that topped Houston's most expensive sales in 2025, from modern mansions in Memorial Villages to ...

Researchers at ETH Zurich and the University of Basel have succeeded in changing the polarity of a special ferromagnet using ...

Scientists have demonstrated that light alone can reversibly control magnetism in a topological material. Researchers at the ...

A UBC Okanagan-led research project has given a group of international scientists their clearest view yet of the Milky Way's magnetic field, revealing that it is far more complex than previously ...
