Seeking to mimic self-assembly processes that occur naturally, RIKEN researchers have demonstrated that the self-assembly of ...

That is, unless you’ve got one of these nifty magnetic field visualizers developed by [Dr.Stone]. Using an XMC1100 microcontroller development board and a TLV49 3D magnetic sensor, the device is ...

Controlling magnetism in a device is not easy; unusually large magnetic fields or lots of electricity are needed, which are ...

Tiny magnetic "flowers" engineered by physicist Anna Palau are redefining how we manipulate magnetic fields. These ...

Earth's magnetic field results from a swirling sea of electrically ... enabling the instruments on board to pick up faint signals that they could not have detected in their original, higher ...

It uses a number of coils to produce a magnetic field to levitate the 3D printed plastic snail which contains the lighting element itself. The actively controlled levitation base uses a magnetic ...

NASA is sending an exciting mission to the Moon on board a commercial lander ... in the solar wind interact with our planet's magnetic field. This happens at the edge of the magnetosphere.

Creatures from migratory eels and other fish species to insects to birds tap into the Earth’s magnetic field to navigate, sometimes many thousands of miles. But so far, evidence has been scant for any ...

It looked still to you before because you were moving with it. We have this same problem with electric and magnetic fields. Depending on your reference frame, what appears to be a magnetic force ...

How a tokamak works: The electric field induced by a transformer drives a current (big red arrows) through the plasma column. This generates a poloidal magnetic field that bends the plasma current ...

and birds—are able to orient themselves relative to the Earth’s magnetic field. Among mammals, naked mole rats, deer, and even dogs also seem to have this gift. Researchers have recently shown that ...
