High magnetic fields are a vital tool in many areas of science and technology that impact our everyday lives, from medical diagnostics through magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to drug discovery ...

Saturn’s magnetic field isn’t the smooth, symmetrical shield scientists see around Earth. Instead, it’s noticeably skewed, and researchers now think they understand why. By analyzing years of data ...

Hundreds of millions of years ago, Earth’s magnetic field behaved in a way that has long baffled scientists, showing wild and seemingly chaotic shifts unlike anything seen before or since. A new study ...
