A research team from the University of Science and Technology of China has demonstrated the ability to electrically ...

A perfectly preserved ancient tree fossil offered scientists an unprecedented view into a moment 42,000 years ago when the Earth’s magnetic field went haywire. The compelling 2021 study tells the ...

Scientists have found a way to achieve negative refraction—where light bends the "wrong" way—using carefully arranged atomic arrays instead of engineered metamaterials. This breakthrough has enormous ...

Researchers have developed a novel experimental platform to measure the electric fields of light trapped between two mirrors ...

Three and a half kilometres beneath the Mediterranean Sea, around 80km off the coast of Sicily, lies half of a very unusual telescope called KM3NeT.

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 ...

Discover how sea turtles navigate the ocean using their internal GPS and learn about their magnetic field perception.

A new study from researchers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill provides the first empirical evidence that ...

Sea turtles are capable of creating GPS-like magnetic maps to guide them back to foraging grounds, and they do a little dance ...

Sea turtles have long mystified researchers by returning to beaches where they were hatched, magnetic signals may be the key, new research finds.
