NOAA scientists have spent decades tracking how magnetic north wanders, but recent modeling shows a pole moving in ways ...

Learn how some of Earth’s magnetic field flips last longer than others, weakening our defenses against cosmic radiation.

Deep beneath the ocean floor, ancient sediments hint that Earth’s magnetic field sometimes changed far more slowly than expected.

Earth’s magnetic field can linger in a weakened, unstable state for tens of thousands of years before fully flipping.

Earth's magnetic field is generated by the churn of its liquid nickel-iron outer core, but it is not a constant feature. Every so often, the magnetic north and south poles swap places in what are ...

Scientists are mapping the Milky Way galaxy’s invisible magnetic field, revealing how it holds the galaxy together and ...

RIKEN physicists have found a magnetic material that converts heat into electricity with high efficiency, making it promising for use in energy-harvesting devices. The work is published in the journal ...

Advanced modeling has revealed an Australia-shaped magnetic anomaly beneath the country's Northern Territory that holds ...

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 ...
