Most of the time, the shape of Earth’s magnetic field is quite similar to that which would be produced by a bar magnet ...

"When Arp 220 is observed as a whole, it's one of the best places in the universe for astronomers to study how gravity, star formation, and powerful winds work together with strong magnetic fields to ...

Would you try an electromagnetic headset that claims to ‘reset the vagus nerve’? Emilie Lavinia investigates the world of neurostimulation and a new wave of in-clinic treatments for depression ...

Magnets can attract or repel without even touching, but how do they do that? This video breaks down what magnets are and how ...

"A strong magnetic field is very important for life on a planet," study lead Miki Nakajima, an associate professor in the department of Earth and environmental sciences at the University of Rochester ...

For years, scientists noticed that magnetic fields could improve steel, but no one knew exactly why. New simulations reveal that magnetism changes how iron atoms behave, making it harder for carbon ...

Reform is at risk of absorbing so many former Tories that it starts to look like the establishment it denounces.
