New computer simulations suggest the first magnetic fields that emerged after the Big Bang were much weaker than expected — ...

This persnickety number determines the strength of magnetic fields. It figures in everything from motors and generators to ...

New research suggests that the largest magnetic fields in the universe originated through some exotic mechanism that absolutely soaked the early cosmos.

Scientists in Berlin have discovered that when the Venus flytrap closes its jaws, it creates a small magnetic field.

They experimented to see if they could create electricity by using a specially designed hollow magnetic cylinder to capture energy using the Earth's magnetic field.

These rocks offer evidence that Earth had a strong magnetic field 3.7 billion years ago, but scientists aren't sure where that field could've come from.

Deep in the heart of our galaxy lies one of the most chaotic and mysterious regions in space. Now, scientists have created the first detailed map of magnetic fields in this turbulent zone ...

As we approach solar maximum, something strange is happening to the sun's magnetic field. We explore this flip in polarity in more detail and look at the effects it could have on Earth.

Tens of thousands of years ago, Earth's magnetic field flipped — and scientists have recreated the haunting sound it made.
