Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for the Structure and Dynamics of Matter (MPSD) have developed an innovative method ...

You can check this by placing the compass next to the bowl. The needle is being affected by the Earth’s magnetic field. One end points towards magnetic north and the other end points south.

Explorers have long trusted compasses to navigate Earth's land and oceans, using our planet's global magnetic field as their guide. But what happens when you take a compass beyond Earth - into ...

Tiny magnetic bacteria that live in tightly bound groups are showing scientists how life might have evolved complex, multicellular forms. These rare bacteria can’t survive alone – they depend on one ...

the earth has a magnetic field that is essentially anchored by two poles -- magnetic north and magnetic south. A compass uses a magnetized needle that is constantly drawn to magnetic north.

(Nanowerk News) Magnetic fields are fundamental to controlling the magnetization of materials. Under static or slowly varying conditions, a material's magnetization aligns with the external field like ...
