This image shows the solar wind interacting with Earth’s magnetic field, causing the magnetic field lines to reconnect and resulting in atmospheric loss within the aurora at the polar cusps. Credit: ...

New research led by physicists at the University of Warwick has used tools designed to study social networks to gain significant new insights into the Northern Lights, and space weather particularly ...

The tree diagram shows three perspectives for evaluating the sensitivity limits (green leaves). These perspectives are interconnected (red dashed lines) and are constrained by fundamental principles ...

Have you ever wondered how a magnetometer works? We sure have, which was why we were happy to stumble upon this article on simple homebrew fluxgate magnetometers. As [Maurycy] explains, clues to how a ...

Quantum magnetometers can detect and visualize the tiniest damage in ferromagnetic materials. In aerospace technology or the automotive industry, they can help to significantly increase the resilience ...

The highly integrated vector magnetometer is based on nitrogen vacancies (NV) in diamond and provides access to the smallest magnetic fields with a previously unattainable degree of flexibility and ...

For just over two years, a scalar magnetometer developed by Graz University of Technology (TU Graz) and the Space Research Institute (IWF) of the Austrian Academy of Sciences has been on its way to ...
