A strong solar storm is headed to Earth and this could cause colorful aurora displays in parts of the United States.

A strong geomagnetic storm unleashed by multiple magnetic eruptions on the Sun means many Americans in the Lower 48 could be treated to quite a spectacle late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning ...

The planet's once-strong magnetic field appears to have been limited to its southern hemisphere, the apparent result of a fully liquid inner core that differs from that of Earth ...

The Earth's magnetic field quietly supports life on the planet and now, for the first time, its invisible powers have been used to create new nanoparticles and materials.

An uncommon double solar eruption has sent two coronal mass ejections towards Earth, which are expected to arrive Wednesday.

In magnetic reconnection, adjacent magnetic field lines break and snap together to form new lines. This process converts magnetic energy to both thermal energy, or heat, and kinetic energy, or the ...

Abstract: Optically pumped magnetometers (OPMs) operating in the spin-exchange relaxation-free (SERF) regime achieve excellent sensitivity in environments with zero magnetic fields. Therefore, it is ...

Defending champion Scottie Scheffler will head the field as the best golfers in the world converge on Augusta National Golf Club for the 2025 Masters Tournament. Scheffler won his second green ...

The sun has somewhat surprised forecasters today with a dramatic X-class solar flare from a newly emerging sunspot region. The intense solar flare originated from sunspot region AR4046 and was ...

NASA proclaimed 2024 to be “Heliophysics Big Year,” and with good reason. Heliophysics is the study of the sun, and 2024 gave us many gr opportunities to learn about our star, including a ...
