A weak spot in Earth’s protective magnetic field is growing larger, according to a decade of measurements. The European Space Agency’s Swarm trio of satellites has found that a weak region in Earth’s ...

How could such a small body with a weak core have created magnetic fields as strong as Earth’s? Now, a team led by researchers at MIT may have found the answer. Their study, published in Science ...

Protective force fields exist and you’re already living inside one. About 1,800 miles beneath the ground you’ll reach the border of Earth’s outer core, a subterranean ocean of liquid iron and nickel 1 ...

A weak spot in the Earth's magnetic field is growing over the South Atlantic Ocean, according to more than a decade's worth of satellite data collected by scientists. The magnetic field surrounding ...

a) In a weak magnetic field, broad cyclotron orbits suppress the orbital contribution, allowing spin polarization to dominate, (b) In strong magnetic fields, tight cyclotron orbits enhance orbital ...

Researchers from the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, have resolved a long-standing debate about the strength of the Moon’s magnetic field. For decades, scientists have argued ...
