In the past year, two separate experiments in two different materials captured the same confounding scenario: the coexistence ...

For decades, physicists taught that superconductivity and magnetism could not share the same space. One state should destroy ...

THE careful instructions for the eighty-five experiments contained in this little book, together with the useful hints for the construction of apparatus, should serve very well to introduce young ...

Pigeons may sense Earth’s magnetic field using their inner ear, sending signals to brain areas that help with navigation and memory.

Create your own magnetic slime and discover how ferromagnetic materials interact with magnetic fields. You'll learn about magnetism, viscosity, and chemical reactions while making a fascinating ...

A virtual laboratory under development at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro aims to let students experiment with physics concepts without physically being in a lab. Computer simulations ...

The universe is highly magnetic, with everything from stars to planets to galaxies producing their own magnetic fields. Astrophysicists have long puzzled over these surprisingly strong and long-lived ...
