Researchers studying decades of earthquake data say they have found the first evidence that, in addition to spinning backward ...

"Most of the external layers of a massive star are removed during the supernova, but some material falls back, making the neutron star spin faster." ...

In a surprising discovery, scientists have detected "chirping" waves some 100,000 miles above Earth, in a region of the ...

Chorus waves, quick bursts of energy known to occur relatively close to Earth and around other planets, were found in an ...

A groundbreaking X-ray imager is on its way to revolutionize our understanding of Earth's magnetic defenses. This ...

Earth’s magnetic field, generated by movements within its molten iron core, serves as a protective shield against solar winds ...

These far-flung chorus waves were discovered using data from NASA’s Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, which uses four identical satellites for studying the Earth’s magnetosphere. Although the ...

Strange chorus waves, detected far from Earth, challenge existing theories and raise space mission safety concerns.

The exchange of electromagnetic and thermal energy in collisionless plasmas is an important area of study to understand many space physics processes. The authors use in-situ, high resolution ...

We believe Mars may once have had oceans and sky, but lost them from a lack of a magnetosphere. How does this happen, and how can we create a magnetosphere for Mars so we can terraform and live on it?

This, they claim, means it must have originated in the highly magnetized region that surrounds a star: the magnetosphere. The researchers obtained their result by measuring the FRB’s scintillation, ...
