In a world first, plasma “fireballs” have been created in the lab setting using the Super Proton Synchrotron accelerator at CERN, Geneva. The Oxford-led international science team experimented to ...

An international team of scientists, led by the University of Oxford, has achieved a world-first by creating plasma ...

NASA reveals that a particle wind powers pulsar J1023, aligning optical and X-ray polarization, which calls existing models ...

The experiment at CERN produced pairs of electron and positron beams, propagating into an ambient plasma. The international ...

Motion of a charged particle in magnetic field is described by the change in the direction of motion. It is described as magnetic field which is capable of only changing direction of motion. Motion of ...

Ancient sea creatures may have used magnetic particles to navigate. 3D scans reveal how these magnetofossils sensed Earth’s ...

The established theory of particle physics is called the standard model, and has passed a vast number of experimental tests with flying colours. But one such test — the determination of the magnetic ...

A student-built CubeSat from the University of Michigan will investigate whether small satellites can be maintained in low Earth orbit without thrusters or propellant. Scheduled to launch from the ...

Finding an elusive elementary particle is more viable than ever after an international team of scientists conducted the first experiment to explore magnetic monopoles using the Large Hadron Collider.
