'Nanorust' cleans arsenic from drinking water
The discovery of unexpected magnetic interactions between ultrasmall specks of rust is leading scientists at Rice University's Center for Biological and Environmental Nanotechnology (CBEN) to develop a revolutionary, low-cost technology for cleaning arsenic from drinking water. view more (2006-11-10)
World's most powerful MRI ready to scan human brain
The world's most powerful medical magnetic resonance imaging machine, the 9.4 Tesla at the University of Illinois at Chicago, has successfully completed safety trials and may soon offer physicians a real-time view of biological processes in the human brain. view more (2007-12-05)
Capture of nanomagnetic 'fingerprints' a boost for next-generation information storage media
In the race to develop the next generation of storage and recording media, a major hurdle has been the difficulty of studying the tiny magnetic structures that will serve as their building blocks. view more (2009-01-29)
Movement of atoms viewed at 100 times higher than previous resolution
A paper published in Nature, by scientists at the Universities of Sheffield and Warwick and the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility, describes how experts have used X-rays to see structures in unprecedented detail at the atomic scale. The technique is 100 times more sensitive than any other method, and has the potential to allow scientists to... view more... (2005-05-04)
New theory explains enhanced superconductivity in nanowires
Superconducting wires are used in magnetic resonance imaging machines, high-speed magnetic-levitation trains, and in sensitive devices that detect variations in the magnetic field of a brain. view more (2006-10-19)
Biggest breach of Earth's solar storm shield discovered
Earth's magnetic field, which shields our planet from particles streaming outward from the Sun, often develops two holes that allow the largest leaks, according to researchers sponsored by NASA and the National Science Foundation. view more (2008-12-17)
No Core In Volcanoes
A hot debate in the Earth Sciences is finally resolved in this week's issue of Nature. Researchers from the Department of Earth Sciences at Bristol University show that large volcanoes do not contain material from the Earth's core. This overturns previous theories that conflicted with models of how the Earth's magnetic field is sustained. The... view more... (2004-01-12)
Deep Organ Image MR Scan Development
Oxford Researchers have developed a new, simple, design of accessory MR surface coil which significantly enhances the quality and clarity of deep organ MRI images. A new design of magnetic resonance imaging surface coil has been developed in which the location, size and improved homogeneity of the magnetic field within the, so called, "sweet... view more...

Magnetism shapes beauty in the heavens
Using a technique based on the work of the 1902 Nobel Prizewinner, Pieter Zeeman, an international team of astronomers have, for the first time, provided conclusive proof that the magnetic field close to a number of aging stars is 10 to 100 times stronger than that of our own Sun. These observations suggest a solution to the long outstanding... view more... (2002-11-01)
A researcher of UPV/EHU has designed nanomagnets for industry
The PhD, defended by chemist Sonia Moralejo García at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), achieved a well-defined line for the manufacture of nanomagnets and other magnetic devices of wide industrial application. view more (2008-02-13)
XMM-Newton reveals a magnetic surprise
ESA's X-ray observatory XMM-Newton has revealed evidence for a magnetic field in space where astronomers never expected to find one. The magnetic field surrounds a young star called AB Aurigae and provides a possible solution to a twenty-year-old puzzle. view more (2007-02-23)
Shape matters in the case of cobalt nanoparticles
Shape is turning out to be a particularly important feature of some commercially important nanoparticles-but in subtle ways. view more (2009-06-18)
ESA's Cluster solved an auroral puzzle
ESA's four Cluster spacecraft have made a remarkable set of observations that has led to a breakthrough in understanding the origin of a peculiar and puzzling type of aurora. These aurorae - seen as bright spots in Earth's atmosphere and called 'dayside proton auroral spots' - occur when fractures appear in the Earth's magnetic field, allowing... view more... (2003-05-20)
Movement of Earth's North Magnetic Pole Accelerating Rapidly
After some 400 years of relative stability, Earth's North Magnetic Pole has moved nearly 1,100 kilometers out into the Arctic Ocean during the last century and at its present rate could move from northern Canada to Siberia within the next half-century. view more (2005-12-12)
What makes Mars magnetic?
Earth's surface is a very active place; its plates are forever jiggling around, rearranging themselves into new configurations. Continents collide and mountains arise, oceans slide beneath continents and volcanoes spew. view more (2007-08-13)
Wiley Launches Magnetic Resonance in Medicine and Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging within Wiley InterScience's MobileEdition ™ Service

Overbearing colored light may reveal a second mechanism by which birds interpret magnetic signals
Magnetic orientation is critical to the migratory success of many bird species. By studying the influence of light on the ability of migratory birds to orient to magnetic signals, researchers have found clues to suggest that birds' orientation abilities may be more complex than previously thought. view more (2005-08-23)
UAB Researchers Develop a Model for Optimising the Magnetic Levitation of Superconductors
A research team in the Physics Department at the UAB, formed by Àlvar S' nchez, Carles Navau (also lecturer and researcher at the Escola Universitaria Salesiana de Sarri' ) and Enric Pardo, have developed a complete theoretical model that allows for the detailed study of the magnetic force of levitation that appears in a high-temperature... view more...

Cluster hits the magnetic bull's-eye
ESA's spacecraft constellation Cluster has hit the magnetic bull's-eye. The four spacecraft surrounded a region within which the Earth's magnetic field was spontaneously reconfiguring itself. view more (2006-07-19)
A step nearer to understanding superconductivity
Transporting energy without any loss, travelling in magnetically levitated trains, carrying out medical imaging (MRI) with small-scale equipment: all these things could come true if we had superconducting materials that worked at room temperature. view more (2007-06-07)
