able insulation is a vital element in the design and fabrication of high-field superconducting magnets. Insulation must ensure the electrical integrity of both turn-turn and turn-ground windings. It ...

Scientists studying lunar samples have finally resolved a decades-long debate about the Moon’s ancient magnetic field.

Old Apollo rocks are providing a fresh take on the moon's magnetic field ...

Oxford scientists have discovered that the Moon’s ancient magnetic field was mostly weak but experienced rare, powerful ...

Researchers from the Department of Earth Sciences, University of Oxford, have resolved a long-standing debate about the strength of the moon's magnetic field. For decades, scientists have argued about ...

Magnet technology has advanced, year-over-year, pulled by the desire of scientists for ever-higher magnetic fields. But progress has been paced by new developments in properties of materials needed to ...

As with any such correlation, one has to entertain the notion that said correlation might be spurious or indirectly related before assuming a strong causal link. Here it is for example known already ...

For the first time, researchers measured the magnetic pull inside a single bacterium, turning a biological mystery into hard numbers.

Earth’s magnetic shield is shifting in dramatic ways. New data from ESA’s Swarm satellites show that the South Atlantic Anomaly — a vast weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field — has grown by nearly half ...

Scientists at the University of Oxford have finally settled a decades-long mystery about the Moon’s magnetic field — and it turns out both sides were right. By reanalyzing Apollo mission rocks, they ...
