Seeing magnetic fields
It has long been known that migratory birds can make use of the earth's magnetic fields to navigate. Birds read the angle that magnetic fields create on the ground and thereby determine how far north or south they are of the magnetic equator and the magnetic pole. But how do they do this? Is there some unknown "magnetic sense"? It seems... view more... (2004-02-23)
NPL research shows there could be no end in sight for Moore's Law
The fast pace of growing computing power could be sustained for many years to come thanks to new research from the UK's National Physical Laboratory (NPL) that is applying advanced techniques to magnetic semiconductors. view more (2008-12-09)
Health: Improving the recognition of brain tumours
Researchers at the Institute of Nuclear Chemistry in Jülich have developed a short-lived, radioactive amino acid that delivers much more precise information on brain tumours and their structure than was possible in the past. By combining positron emission tomography (PET), a process that visualises the spread of radioactive substances in the... view more... (2005-05-04)
Cluster opens a new window on 'magnetic reconnection' in the near-Earth space
Plasma physicists have made an unprecedented measurement in their study of the Earth's magnetic field. Thanks to ESA's Cluster satellites they detected an electric field thought to be a key element in the process of 'magnetic reconnection'. view more (2007-03-13)
First detection of magnetic field in distant galaxy produces a surprise
Using a powerful radio telescope to peer into the early universe, a team of California astronomers has obtained the first direct measurement of a nascent galaxy's magnetic field as it appeared 6.5 billion years ago. view more (2008-10-02)
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)
Pushing the limits of hard disk storage
Just how much data can we cram onto a hard disk? In a paper appearing online today in Physical Review Letters, EPFL (Ecole Polytechnique Federale de Lausanne) Professor Harald Brune and his colleagues report what they believe to be the ultimate density limit of magnetic recording. view more (2005-10-10)
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)
The missing link in the evolution of magnetic cataclysmic stars?
An international team of astronomers might have discovered the missing link in the evolution of the so-called magnetic cataclysmic variable stars. They determined the spin and orbital periods of the binary star Paloma. view more (2007-09-17)
Looking at autoimmune diabetes, literally
A major problem for understanding and treating type1 diabetes is that we are unable to directly, but non-invasively, visualize the inflammatory lesions in the pancreas that cause the disease. view more (2005-08-19)
Aston researchers first scientists in UK to explore mysteries of whole brain
The new Neurosciences Research Institute at Aston University houses one of only 10 whole head MEG scanners in the world. The equipment measures magnetic fields in the brain. view more (1999-11-17)
Iowa State chemists track how drug changes, blocks flu virus
An anti-virus drug attacks influenza A by changing the motion and structure of a proton channel necessary for the virus to infect healthy cells, according to a recently published research paper by two Iowa State University chemists. view more (2008-02-04)
Astronomers report unprecedented double helix nebula near center of the Milky Way
Astronomers report an unprecedented elongated double helix nebula near the center of our Milky Way galaxy, using observations from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope. view more (2006-03-16)
Raman spectroscopy to undergo a UV transformation - New technique could help rapid detection of infecting organisms in hospitals and prove authenticity of foods such
Researchers at the University of Wales, Aberystwyth (UWA) are about to put ultra-violet Raman spectroscopy through its paces as a new technique for studying biological materials. Dr Roy Goodacre and colleagues in the Institute of Biological Sciences have been awarded a grant worth £306,291 by the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research... view more... (2002-03-01)
Questions over 'healing effect' of magnet therapy
Patients should be advised that magnet therapy has no proved benefits, and that any healing effect is likely to be small, say US researchers in this week's BMJ. view more (2006-01-06)
Discovery at UAB brings us nearer to making the dream of invisibility true
A group of researchers from the Department of Physics at UAB have designed a device, called a dc metamaterial, which makes objects invisible under certain light - very low frequency electromagnetic waves - by making the inside of the magnetic field zero but not altering the exterior field. view more (2009-07-08)
New advance towards superconductor wires
Researchers at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, the Materials Science Institute of Barcelona (ICMAB-CSIC), and various German and North American institutions have developed a simple method for measuring the maximum current that coated superconductors can carry. The material will, most likely, be used to manufacture the superconductor... view more... (2004-03-22)
Is it safe to go shopping?
Surveillance systems and devices that deactivate magnetic security tags at checkouts must limit the strength of their magnetic fields for safety reasons, according to research published today in the Institute of Physics journal Physics in Medicine and Biology. Researchers from the University of Utah investigated the effect of surveillance devices... view more... (2001-10-03)
Breakthrough in magnetic devices could make computers more powerful
Scientists have created novel 'spintronic' devices that could point the way for the next generation of more powerful and permanent data storage chips in computers. view more (2006-12-07)
Pancreatic fat levels may help predict diabetes, UT Southwestern researchers say
Researchers have long suspected that overweight people tend to have large fat deposits in their pancreases, but they've been unable to confirm or calculate how much fat resides there because of the organ's location. Until now. view more (2009-09-22)
