The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

A new world record for the strongest steady magnetic field has been set at the Steady High Magnetic Field Facility (SHMFF) in Hefei, China. Researchers from the Chinese Academy of Sciences set a new ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...

Florida State University researchers have created a new crystalline material with unusual magnetic patterns that could be ...

A wild idea has been proposed to generate electric power from Earth’s rotation with the help of magnetic fields. A new research has presented experimental evidence confirming a previously theorized ...
