You can understand why The Magnetic Fields’ “The Book Of Love” would make sense to some as a song to which a couple might walk down the aisle. It features an absolutely lovely melody. And it talks ...

While we have sent probes billions of kilometers into interstellar space, humans have barely scratched the surface of our own planet, not even making it through the thin crust. Roughly 3,000 ...

Two vast, mysterious blobs of hot rock around Earth’s core may have been instrumental in producing Earth’s magnetic field and caused it to be slightly wonky for millions of years. Scientists have ...

A team of geologists found for the first time evidence linking regions of low seismic velocity and the shape of the Earth’s magnetic field. A team of geologists has found for the first time evidence ...

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 ...

For all we’ve learned about places far away in outer space, we may have barely scratched the surface of the places lying deep within Earth. As a result, there’s a lot of information we seem to be ...

Discover how a rotating coil placed in a magnetic field generates an induced EMF. This video explains the core physics behind electromagnetic induction, showing how motion, magnetic flux, and ...

The magnetic monopole—an isolated magnetic charge—has long been proposed to restore the symmetry of Maxwell’s equations, yet it has never been observed as a free particle. This paper presents a new ...

In the late 1800s, the French naturalist Camille Viguier proposed an idea that would be dismissed and forgotten for more than a century. He speculated that birds and other animals could navigate with ...
