Scientists have observed a new microscopic mechanism enabling precise control of the magneto-optical properties of excitons ...

Tiny highly uniform magnetic fields are known to pervade the universe, influencing various cosmological processes. To date, ...

A novel method to manipulate the inner structure of cells connects several scientific fields and could represent a ...

Pigeons can sense Earth’s magnetic field by detecting tiny electric currents in their inner ears, a team of researchers suggests. Such an inner compass could help to explain how certain animals can ...

A rogue, planet-size object 20 light-years away from Earth has stunned astronomers with its incredibly powerful magnetic field. The scientists found that the object's magnetic field is more than 200 ...

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo ...

Scientists now believe humans might possess a subtle ability to sense Earth's magnetic field, a trait previously thought exclusive to animals. Research indicates our brains and possibly eyes respond ...
