Natural crystals fascinate with their vibrant colors, their nearly flawless appearance and their manifold symmetrical forms.

Intriguingly, by comparing the optically excited precession behavior of the samples under the same external magnetic fields, the oscillation period of the precession appeared to be expanded for ...

However, the role played by precession in the formation of Earth's magnetic field is still completely unclear. The Earth's rotational axis is tilted by 23.5 degrees from its orbital plane.

The precession speed in a magnetic field depends on properties of the muon described by a number called the g-factor. Theoretical physicists calculate the g-factor based on the current knowledge of ...

“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 ...

Scientists convert Earth's magnetic field collapse from 41,000 years ago into chilling audio, revealing ancient cosmic ...

Prior to about 3.56 billion years ago, the dynamo effect from these factors combined created a magnetic field, albeit one much weaker than Earth’s present magnetic field (which measures about 50 ...

Thousands of years ago, Earth’s magnetic field underwent a significant power surge over a part of the planet that included the ancient kingdom of Mesopotamia. People at the time probably never ...

According to the ESA, “Our magnetic field is largely generated by an ocean of superheated, swirling liquid iron that makes up the outer core around 1,864 miles beneath our feet.
