Earth's magnetic field acts as a vital shield against radiation arriving from space, but it is not constant. A new ...

Beijing Zhongke Journal Publising Co. Ltd. This study is led by Dr. Zhaojin Rong (Institute of Geology and Geophysics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences). The magnetic field is the fundamental field in ...

High-energy particles called galactic cosmic rays (GCRs) bombard unprotected objects in space, often causing damage. Earth, ...

Physicists at the New Jersey Institute of Technology have traced the Sun’s magnetic engine to a depth of roughly 200,000 ...

Image of the Sun taken from the Solar Dynamics Observatory satellite, showing the quiet corona and magnetic structures like coronal loops, which trace the intricate patterns of magnetic field lines ...

Magnetic fields that stretch across thousands of light-years should take a very long time to organize. Standard dynamo theory ...

Spacecraft reentry environments lead to high magnetic Reynolds numbers, resulting in complex dynamics for magnetic flow ...

Although the idea of containing a plasma within a magnetic field seems straightforward at first, plasmas are highly dynamic systems that will happily escape magnetic confinement if given half a chance ...

We all know that stars radiate light and much more. But radiation belts can also surround many other celestial bodies, such as planets. These belts do not generate particles themselves—the belts ...
