As black holes feed, they pull material into a disk around them. The material orbiting in this disk gets heated to extreme temperatures, and so it becomes a plasma — a state of matter in which some of ...

Researchers have found that magnetic fields buried deep inside stars can survive their entire lifetimes and later reappear on ...

Saturn’s magnetic field isn’t the smooth, symmetrical shield scientists see around Earth. Instead, it’s noticeably skewed, and researchers now think they understand why. By analyzing years of data ...

Magnetic fields as a research area encompasses theoretical, computational, and experimental studies of magnetic field generation, structure, dynamics, and interaction with matter across scales, from ...

The hope for quantum computers is that the devices will be able to solve complex tasks such as predicting how chemicals react or cracking encrypted text. One of the main reasons that the machines are ...

This is an article about the science of why some people have instantly likable, magnetic personalities. But before we get to the research, let me tell you about something that drives me crazy about my ...
