Animal studies often fail to predict human tissue responses to new drugs or newly developed therapies. Besides generating ...

Researchers in China believe some nocturnally migrating insects, including highly destructive and invasive moths, use both ...

New observations are helping scientists peer beneath the Sun’s surface, revealing where its magnetic activity may truly begin ...

Helioseismic data traces the solar dynamo to the tachocline about 200,000 km down.

Every eleven years, the sun's magnetic field flips. Sunspots—dark, cooler regions on the sun's surface that mark intense magnetic activity and often trigger solar eruptions—appear at mid-latitudes and ...

Researchers studying a distant spiral galaxy have found that large-scale, ordered magnetic fields existed far earlier in cosmic history than standard theories predicted, forcing a fresh look at how ...

Stephen has degrees in science (Physics major) and arts (English Literature and the History and Philosophy of Science), as well as a Graduate Diploma in Science Communication. Stephen has degrees in ...

The sun’s surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed ...

Researchers have created DNA-like magnetic nanostructures that form strong inter-helix magnetic bonds. These produce topological textures in the magnetic field, opening the door to the next generation ...

Scientists have used state-of-the-art 3D printing and microscopy to provide a new glimpse of what happens when taking magnets to three-dimensions on the nanoscale – 1000 times smaller than a human ...
