Magnetic fields thread the largest structures in the observable universe. They trace the filaments of the cosmic web, wind ...

New simulations show that interactions with a magnetic field can work to decrease the distance between still forming binary ...

Scientists have uncovered a surprising force that may help explain how binary star systems form so quickly. New supercomputer ...

Skyrmions are nanometer- to micrometer-sized magnetic whirls that exhibit particle-like properties and can be moved efficiently by electrical currents. These properties make skyrmions an excellent ...

A new analysis of computer simulations of Earth’s magnetic field suggests that its behavior was different early in Earth’s history, resulting in greater stability and fewer reversals of the magnetic ...

A new simulation of the galaxy’s magnetic turbulence shakes up how we think about—and visualize—the astrophysical environments. The model was developed by James Beattie, a postdoctoral fellow at the ...

Magnetic fields may be the hidden force bringing both newborn stars and giant black holes together. New computer simulations ...

A new study by the University of Leeds and University of California at San Diego reveals that changes in the direction of the Earth's magnetic field may take place 10 times faster than previously ...

Available at no cost, the online simulation resource offers high accuracy and configurability for magnetic position-sensor design, covering both linear and rotary modes of operation. In order to ...

Simulations show magnetic fields can remove angular momentum from forming protostars, helping binary star systems form within ...
