A research team led by Dr. Shen Jinhua from the Xinjiang Astronomical Observatory (XAO) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences ...

The new pen’s tip is made of small neodymium magnets mixed into Ecoflex, a brand of silicone rubber advertised for production of prosthetics and film props. The body contains a reservoir of ferrofluid ...

It’s entirely likely that you could recreate many legacy analogue set-ups with just a few chained plugins. Here, we’ll show ...

Known as magnetic flux ropes, coronal loops and solar prominences, these structures possess spiraling magnetic field lines, as if a huge bar magnet had been twisted into a corkscrew.

Faraday’s Law of Induction describes how an electric current produces a magnetic field and, conversely, how a changing magnetic field generates an electric current in a conductor.

The leftover magnetic flux from one sunspot pair alone doesn’t make much of a difference, but during the solar cycle’s more active period, the sun can easily top 100 sunspots at any given moment.

Loggerhead turtles “dance” when exposed to food-associated magnetic fields, and their magnetic map may help them return to specific areas after long migrations.

The oscillating magnetic poles of the stator react with the poles in the rotor’s permanent magnets, attracting and repulsing them. The flux force created causes the rotor and its shaft to turn, but ...

The laminations had nowhere near the magnetic flux density of the commercial stampings, though, completely changing the characteristics of the transformer.

Here, most of the flux detours through a lower-reluctance path: the magnetic bypass. This reduces flux in the auxiliary leg, leaving voltage and current surprisingly low.
