Recent University of Oxford research reveals that the Moon had a mostly weak magnetic field, with brief periods of strong magnetism linked to high-titanium Mare basalts.

There are several theories about how the Earth and the Moon were formed, most involving a giant impact. They vary from a model where the impacting object strikes the newly formed Earth a glancing blow ...

Conventional electronics process information leveraging the electrical charge of electrons. Over the past few decades, some ...

Researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology have demonstrated an entirely new form of magnetism in a synthesized crystalline material. They're calling it p-wave magnetism. This discovery is ...
