[Dr. Fortin] teaches physics at a French High School, and to get his students interested in the natural world around them, he built a geomagnetic ... the local magnetic field, the mirror rotates ...

But wait – isn’t that a geomagnetic field? Well, yes – but if someone’s told you that makes it a different kind of thing from the electromagnetic field coming out of your cellphone ...

The Sun periodically ejects huge bubbles of plasma from its surface that contain an intense magnetic field. These events are called coronal mass ejections, or CMEs. When two of these ejections collide ...

(NASA) When a co-rotating interaction region or coronal mass ejection sweeps past Earth, their impact distorts and disturbs the planet's geomagnetic field. This can cause electrical or ...

Magnetotactic bacteria synthesize magnetic iron nanominerals, which function as tiny compasses that allow the microbes to navigate using Earth's geomagnetic field. Earth's iron cycle is a very ...

More northern U.S. states are expected to see aurora borealis Monday night as an incoming geomagnetic storm is expected to affect Earth’s magnetic field, according to the National Oceanic and ...
