By studying X-rays coming through a magnetar's extreme magnetic field, astronomers may have confirmed space acting like a ...

However, our understanding of planetary magnetic fields is limited to the eight planets in our solar system, as we haven't yet accrued much data on the magnetic fields of exoplanets. That could be ...

A team of physicists and engineers at the University of Colorado Boulder has discovered a new way to measure the orientation of magnetic fields using what may be the tiniest compasses around—atoms.

High magnetic fields are a vital tool in many areas of science and technology that impact our everyday lives, from medical diagnostics through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to drug discovery ...
