How fast can a galaxy build ordered magnetic fields spanning thousands of light-years? Existing theories say several billion ...

Researchers studying a distant spiral galaxy have found that large-scale, ordered magnetic fields existed far earlier in ...

How does a black hole generate a magnetic field and how can it be measured and visualized? Alan CroftSeattle, Washington As ...

Magnetic fields that stretch across thousands of light-years should take a very long time to organize. Standard dynamo theory ...

For more than 40 years, scientists have known that the quantum Hall effect impacts electrons in strong magnetic fields, but it turns out light also follows the fundamental phenomenon.

Every new generation of eyes sees a new version of our galaxy, the Milky Way. This Impressionistic swirl of color represents the churning magnetic fields in giant dust clouds near the center of the ...
