There are several theories about how Earth and its moon were formed, most involving a giant impact. Now scientists at the University of Leeds and the University of Chicago have analyzed the dynamics ...

MIT physicists have created a new ultrathin, two-dimensional material with unusual magnetic properties that initially surprised them before they went on to solve the complicated puzzle behind those ...

Most planets have a magnetic field, like Earth, but with different strength or structure. It shields the planet from the energetic particles of the solar wind. The origin of the magnetic field is ...

Recent research investigates the role of primordial magnetic fields in the discrepancy of the Hubble constant values.

Certain substances can become magnetic when exposed to an external magnetic field. Magnetic susceptibility measures how easily a material can be magnetized. Materials known as organic radicals have ...
