Explore a DIY electronics project where a homemade Gauss rifle is built using coils, capacitors, and electromagnetic pulses.

Magnetic reconnection, a phenomenon wherein oppositely directed magnetic field lines in plasma can break apart and reconnect, is still very poorly understood. This is despite the fact that it is ...

Earth's magnetic field, a familiar directional indicator over long distances, is routinely probed in applications ranging from geology to archaeology. Now it has provided the basis for a technique ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Everyone knows that when you hold a compass in your hand the needle will point north thanks to Earth’s magnetic field, but aside ...

Lab top accretion disc: Cutaway diagram of the experimental setup used by Wang and colleagues. The data shown in the left portion of the gap between cylinders illustrates the simulated shear profile ...

Though predicted to exist, magnetic monopoles — hypothetical elementary particles with only one magnetic pole — have never been detected by scientists. But physicists have just accomplished the next ...

New research describes striking similarity of laboratory research findings with observations of the four-satellite Magnetospheric Multiscale Mission that studies magnetic reconnection in space. As on ...

The Standard Model, also known as the Theory of Almost Everything, describes how the fundamental particles of the universe interact. But the model isn’t complete: It fails to account for dark energy ...

In the air people breathe, the water on Earth, the stars in the sky and more, atoms are the building blocks that make up the ...
