A new device has created a magnetic wormhole, in which a magnetic field enters one end and seems to pop out of nowhere on the other side. (Jordi Prat-Camps and Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona) ...

There’s a moment in any movie or cartoon featuring a mad scientist when they flip a switch or mix two chemicals and boom, their lab explodes and smoke billows out the windows and doors. In reality, at ...

Jackson Ryan was CNET's science editor, and a multiple award-winning one at that. Earlier, he'd been a scientist, but he realized he wasn't very happy sitting at a lab bench all day. Science writing, ...

Geophysicists have modeled how Earth’s magnetic field could form even when its core was fully liquid. By removing the effects of viscosity in their simulation, they revealed a self-sustaining dynamo ...

Wormholes are normally the stuff of science fiction, but new research carried out by a group of physicists in Spain has shown that it is possible to build the magnetic equivalent of a wormhole that is ...

Researchers have created and photographed synthetic magnetic monopoles under lab conditions. The development lays the foundation for the underlying structure of the natural magnetic monopole – the ...

“It’s a love story, baby just say ‘yes’ ” to celebrating the MagLab’s “Science Eras” at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory’s 2025 Open House on Saturday. The Open House will showcase the eras ...

This is a computer simulation of gas (in yellow) falling into a black hole (too small to be seen). Twin jets are also shown with magnetic field lines. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...

Ripped from the pages of a sci-fi novel, physicists have crafted a wormhole that tunnels a magnetic field through space. "This device can transmit the magnetic field from one point in space to another ...

For a variety of obvious reasons, it's impossible to reproduce the exact environment in which galaxies form. The lack of direct experimental tests for a the models astrophysicists use creates a ...
