When a charge is placed in a magnetic field, the charge experiences a magnetic force wherein the two conditions: 1) the charge is moving relative to the magnetic field 2) the charge’s velocity has a ...

Scientists studying Earth's magnetic field have discovered that its electric heartbeat flows in the opposite direction from ...

Earth's magnetic field appears to be able to change direction around 10 times faster than was previously thought, scientists have discovered. By recreating the last 100,000 years of the field's ...

Traditionally, scientists believed that the charge polarity of the magnetosphere at the equator and the poles was the same, ...

DR. O. HEAVISIDE has investigated (NATURE, April 19) the slow motion of a charged conducting sphere through a uniform electric field, in a direction parallel to the electric force of the field, and ...

For just over two years, a scalar magnetometer developed by Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) and the Space Research Institute (IWF) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences has been on its way to ...

It has long been known that the Earth's magnetic field flips direction every quarter of a million years or so resulting in the north and south poles changing places. Now physicists in France have ...

Throughout any given year, the National Academies convene hundreds of conferences, workshops, symposia, forums, roundtables, and other gatherings that attract the finest minds in academia and the ...
