Artifacts from the Iron Age have revealed an intense historical magnetic anomaly in the Middle East. Could using a similar approach elsewhere help us unravel the mysteries of Earth's magnetic field?

Ferrofluids, with their mesmeric display of shape-shifting spikes, are a favorite exhibit in science shows. These eye-catching examples of magnetic fields in action could become even more dramatic ...

While the researchers were hoping that the field would reach 700 teslas, the unit used to measure magnetic flux density or informally, magnetic field strength. Instead, the field reached 1,200 teslas.

The free, hands-on science festival is set for 10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 22, at the Florida State University-headquartered MagLab, at 1800 E. Paul Dirac Drive.

They attached their instrument, which generates a low-strength, static magnetic field of 3.2 T, to a row of capacitors that generate a huge amount of energy -- 3.2 megajoules.

A new analysis of people’s brain waves when surrounded by different magnetic fields suggests that people have a “sixth sense” for magnetism. Birds, fish and some other creatures can sense ...

Every several hundred thousand years or so, Earth's magnetic field dramatically shifts and reverses its polarity. Geologist found that the most recent field reversal, some 770,000 years ago, took ...
