If you need help visualizing magnetic fields, these slow-motion video captures should educate or captivate you. Flux lines are difficult to describe in words, because magnet shape and strength ...

Japanese researchers have developed the world’s first superconducting flux qubit that functions in a zero magnetic field.

Scientists know well how conventional materials conduct heat. However, things are not as straightforward under extreme ...

Would a dramatic change in the Earth's magnetic field affect creatures that rely on it during migration? Late on a January night in 1993 I found myself on a beach on the Pacific coast of Costa ...

Compared to far more common radial flux motors, axial flux motors essentially flip the magnetic field on its side, operating via magnetic flux that runs in parallel to the motor axis. This ...

These observations, first made by Philipp Lenard in 1902, gave a startling twist to the story! The mystery was finally resolved by Albert Einstein in 1905, while working as a clerk in the Swiss Patent ...

(CNN) — Sea turtles are renowned for their incredible migrations, traveling thousands of miles across vast oceans with few visible landmarks. Now, a new study, published Wednesday in the journal ...

The ability to conduct heat is one of the most fundamental properties of matter, crucial for engineering applications. Scientists know well how conventional materials, such as metals and insulators, ...
