Astronomers have developed a computer simulation to explore, in unprecedented detail, magnetism and turbulence in the ...

If you ever travel back in time to hang out with Homo sapiens around 41,000 years ago, pack some sunscreen – or better yet, a ...

Yan said that the one-sided magnetic field could arise if Mars' inner core was liquid. "The logic here is that with no solid inner core, it's much easier to produce hemispheric (one-sided ...

First ever supercomputer simulations of Mars with a fully molten core could explain the Red Planet's unusual magnetic field. Billions of years ago, Mars had an active magnetic field. Mysteriously ...

Magnetic field data collected by ESA's Swarm satellites and other sources has been coverted into these frightening sounds.

Two new research studies explore how a stellar nursery in the heart of the Milky Way is affected by the region’s strong ...

Although the magnetic field of Mars hasn’t been in effect for billions of years, the evidence it left behind may suggest that the planet’s core is entirely liquid. Magnetic imprints still exist on ...

"Magnetar birth rates and formation scenarios are among the most pressing questions in high-energy astrophysics." ...

Imagine the drastic changes to Earth's magnetic field and internal heat if our planet had no core.

Astronomers have developed a groundbreaking computer simulation to explore, in unprecedented detail, magnetism and turbulence ...

Their model suggests a fully liquid core and uneven internal heating as possible causes. Simulation of a one-sided magnetic field on early Mars. Credit: Ankit Barik/Johns Hopkins University The ...

Yan said that the one-sided magnetic field could arise if Mars' inner core was liquid. In the study, published in the journal Geophysical Research Letters, the researchers used a computer simulation ...
