For a few hours each lunar day, the radiation environment near the moon quietly shifts. Measurements now suggest that parts ...

This diagram compares how charged particles enter the magnetic fields of Earth (left) and Saturn (right). On Earth, the entry ...

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 ...

New observations are helping scientists peer beneath the Sun’s surface, revealing where its magnetic activity may truly begin ...

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 ...

Animal studies often fail to predict human tissue responses to new drugs or newly developed therapies. Besides generating ...

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, ...

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 ...

Polydopamine-coated magnetic liposomes offer insight into the lectin–glycan interactions in motion. By observing minute changes in the rotational motion of magnetic nanoparticles under alternating ...
