Earth’s Magnetic Field Origins Still Remain a Mystery

Microscopic minerals excavated from an ancient outcrop of Jack Hills, in Western Australia, have been the subject of intense geological study, as they seem to bear traces of the Earth's magnetic field reaching as far back as 4.2 billion years ago.

Researchers Report New Understanding of Energy Fluctuations in Fluids

The Casimir Force is a well-known effect originating from the quantum fluctuation of electromagnetic fields in a vacuum. Now an international group of researchers have reported a counterpoint to that theory, adding to the understanding of energy fluctuations within fluids.

Study Reveals Way to Adjust Properties of Exotic Materials

A material’s properties can be changed in many ways, and one of the ways is to stretch the material slightly. This pushes the atoms in the material further apart but the bonds between the atoms do not break.

Study may Help Explain Cosmic Phenomena in Outer Space

A research team, headed by nuclear physicists at the University of Massachusetts Lowell (UMass Lowell), has made a discovery that might redefine the way atoms are interpreted by researchers and might help to describe the extreme phenomena occurring in outer space.

Hubble Finds Best Evidence For Elusive Mid-Size Black Hole

New data from the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope have provided the strongest evidence yet for mid-sized black holes in the Universe. Hubble confirms that this "intermediate-mass" black hole dwells inside a dense star cluster.
