All celestial bodies—planets, suns, even entire galaxies—produce magnetic fields, affecting such cosmic processes as the ...

Even very slight environmental noise, such as microscopic vibrations or magnetic field fluctuations a hundred times smaller ...

How can magnetic fields help determine the habitability of exoplanets? This is what a recent study published in Nature ...

Water doesn’t behave the same way in a glass as it does as ice in your freezer. When water is heated to several thousand ...

For more than a century, engineers have chased new ways to turn the planet’s natural motions into usable power, from tides to geothermal heat. Now a small group of physicists says Earth’s own magnetic ...

At extreme pressures and temperatures, water becomes superionic — a solid that behaves partly like a liquid and conducts ...
