For just over two years, a scalar magnetometer developed by Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) and the Space Research Institute (IWF) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences has been on its way to ...

Motion of a charged particle in magnetic field is described by the change in the direction of motion. It is described as magnetic field which is capable of only changing direction of motion. Motion of ...

Earth's magnetic field appears to be able to change direction around 10 times faster than was previously thought, scientists have discovered. By recreating the last 100,000 years of the field's ...

The concept of magnetic field lines and magnetic fields was first studied and observed by Michael Faraday and by James Clerk Maxwell, who made great discoveries in the field of electromagnetism.

A team of scientists last year presented evidence of a correlation between the migration patterns of ocean salmon and Earth's magnetic field, suggesting it may help explain how the fish can navigate ...

A study carried out by geoscientists and neurobiologists at Caltech and the University of Tokyo has shown that the human brain responds to changes in the Earth’s magnetic fields on a subconscious ...

Earth's north magnetic pole is so out of whack that scientists need to update the global magnetic-field model they released only four years ago. Could that be a sign that the magnetic pole will flip ...

Throughout any given year, the National Academies convene hundreds of conferences, workshops, symposia, forums, roundtables, and other gatherings that attract the finest minds in academia and the ...

Christopher Davies receives funding from NERC. The Earth’s magnetic field, generated 3,000km below our feet in the liquid iron core, is crucially important to life on our planet. It extends out into ...
