Combining experiments in microfluidic devices and computer simulation, this study provides a valuable analysis of the relevant parameters that determine the motility of (multicellular) magnetotactic ...

Magnetic confinement reactors work by squeezing the plasma so it flows around a torus, and then compressing the torus with magnetic field and ... the central solenoid drives the direction ...

Founder of electromagnetism, André-Marie Ampère gave his name to the unit of electric current. His major work also shaped the ...

By using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS ... 2012). Compared to functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging, fNIRS can be used independent of the environment, allowing easy and effective ...

Did you know that Earth’s magnetic field plays a significant role in shaping global weather patterns? This invisible shield ...

That’s according to new research that suggests that these turtles use Earth’s magnetic field as a map and a compass ... holding the head near or above water, opening the mouth, rapid ...

Cosmic forensic experts are reconstructing the magnetic field around an infant star from the planet-forming disk of gas and dust around it. How do you dust a star for fingerprints? It's certainly ...

To judge the performance of biological sensors, the researchers noted that some animals likely operate near this limit because of their tiny size and the very small amount of magnetic field ...

Over time, changes to this innermost layer could impact the planet’s magnetic field, which shields our ... giant network of sensors in the deep sea near Toulon, France, and Capo Passero, Italy ...

are similar stellar remnants that have magnetic fields around 10 to 100 times weaker than "classical" magnetars. Their origins have been a puzzle — until now. The team behind the new research ...
