Researchers have created DNA-like magnetic nanostructures that form strong inter-helix magnetic bonds. These produce topological textures in the magnetic field, opening the door to the next generation ...

The first image of a black hole was of M87*, the supermassive monster at the center of the enormous elliptical galaxy M87.

Our Sun is far from a smooth, white ball in the sky. Twisting and looping magnetic field lines rise from its surface like hair, causing dark, transient patches on the surface called sunspots wherever ...

The Earth’s magnetic field briefly collapsed, leaving life on Earth exposed to increased solar and cosmic radiation. This ...

Surprise findings suggest sunspots and solar flares could be generated by a magnetic field within the Sun's outermost layers. If confirmed, the findings could help scientists better predict space ...

June 5 (UPI) --Astronomers have successfully measured the shape of the magnetic field in the solar corona, the outermost layer of the sun's atmosphere. Solar winds, streams of high-energy particles, ...

Electrons in a magnetic field can display striking behaviors, from the formation of discrete energy levels to the quantum ...

The sun’s surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed ...
