Understanding Jupiter's early evolution helps illuminate the broader story of how our solar system developed its distinct ...

A new study reveals a fresh way to control and track the motion of skyrmions—tiny, tornado-like magnetic swirls that could ...

The team's calculations indicate that young Jupiter had a radius nearly twice its current size, with a volume large enough to ...

The study by Konstantin Batygin of Caltech and Fred Adams of the University of Michigan pulls off a rare feat in planetary ...

More efficient, smaller, and lighter traction inverters for EVs can be created by integrating current sensors directly into ...

When an electric current passes through a metal wire, a magnetic field forms around that wire (see diagram at right). Likewise, a wire passing through a magnetic field creates an electric current ...

When an electric current flows, the shape of the magnetic field is very similar to the field of a bar magnet. The field inside a solenoid is strong and uniform. The small magnetic field caused by ...

Passive maglev uses permanent magnets in a specific configuration to create a constant magnetic current that levitates the pod, similar to the magnets you might've played with as a kid.

Researchers have discovered the mechanism for supercurrent rectification, in which current flows primarily in one direction in a superconductor. By using a specific iron-based superconductor, they ...

it generates a voltage perpendicular to the direction in which the current is flowing and of an applied magnetic field. This physical phenomenon, known as the anomalous Hall effect, has been ...
