Researchers have created DNA-like magnetic nanostructures that form strong inter-helix magnetic bonds. These produce topological textures in the magnetic field, opening the door to the next generation ...

The first image of a black hole was of M87*, the supermassive monster at the center of the enormous elliptical galaxy M87.

Event Horizon Telescope data reveal the magnetic field around M87* shifted, weakened and then flipped, defying theoretical expectations.

Images taken of the Universe's most photogenic black hole over time reveal strange and exciting changes in its magnetic field. Using observations obtained using the Event Horizon Telescope in 2017, ...

Plasma emerging from the solar surface along magnetic field lines The Sun’s extended magnetic field provides a vital shield for astronauts; without it they would be left exposed to potentially deadly ...

The sun’s surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed ...

Scientists asked a simple question: when Earth’s magnetic field gets unsettled from solar storms, is there a correlation with ...

Event Horizon Telescope observations capture evolving polarization patterns around the supermassive black hole at the center ...

An electric field transforms an iron oxide nanoparticle suspension into a model for the emergence of complex dissipative structures. Researchers at Aalto University have shown that a nanoparticle ...

THERMAL instability during the chemical silvering of glass produces Bénard convection patterns in the deposited silver layer. An unstable condition produced by cooling the silver solution to about 10° ...

Researchers at Aalto University have shown that a nanoparticle suspension can serve as a simple model for studying the formation of patterns and structures in more complicated non-equilibrium systems, ...
