Artifacts from the Iron Age have revealed an intense historical magnetic anomaly in the Middle East. Could using a similar ...
Many grade school students perform a simple physics experiment by using iron fillings to outline a magnetic field. Seizing on their inner-child, physicists at the Max Planck Institute for Quantum ...
Iron filings can be fun to play with, although we don’t think we’ve ever had any this fine. If you prefer your magnetic field visualizations to be higher-tech, we have the answer.
The only drawback is that your homemade magnetic slime won’t store very well, as the iron filings will slowly start to rust because of the water in the white glue leaving you with a nasty brown ...

To investigate Earth's magnetic field — which waxes, wanes and even flips over time — the researchers looked at grains of the mineral iron oxide in 32 clay bricks from ancient Mesopotamia ...
A new study has modeled the dynamics in the lab and found that iron snow could make magnetic fields switch on and off in some planets.
There are a couple of reviews of The Magnetic Fields' Monday night show at the Iron Horse. Donnie Moorhouse reviewed the show for the Republican:Merritt, who seems purposely disinterested when he ...
While Russian scientists were able to create a magnetic field of an astonishing 2,800 teslas, their equipment blew up with the field.
New estimates of how much heat Mercury’s core loses could explain why the tiny world has a long-lived magnetic field.
