Magnetic fields that stretch across thousands of light-years should take a very long time to organize. Standard dynamo theory ...

Figure 1 Schematic diagrams of two superconducting flux qubit circuits. The conventional qubit (a) requires an external magnetic field to operate optimally, while the new flux qubit (b), using a ...

Physicists weren’t sure why Moon rocks brought back during the Apollo missions are more strongly magnetized than models ...

Our planet's invisible shield is changing in ways that scientists are only beginning to understand. Over the past two hundred years, Earth's magnetic field has weakened by around nine percent on a ...

During a brief but dramatic chapter in Earth's history about 41,000 years ago, the planet’s magnetic field nearly collapsed. What followed was a cascade of environmental and biological changes that ...

A study of the magnetic record from the 11th through 14th centuries CE in an iron smelting site in Cambodia finds a sharp directional change of the Earth's magnetic field between 1200 and 1300 CE and ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. Illustration showing the interaction of the solar wind (red) with Earth's magnetic field (blue, not to scale) Researchers have ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. The latest generation of 3D magnetic position sensors from ams AG uses a pair of sensor elements (pixels) that make it ...
