In a first-of-its-kind discovery, astronomers claim they have directly measured the magnetic fields of multiple planets beyond our solar system — potentially providing a crucial new tool in the search ...

Researchers have developed a novel technique to investigate the dynamics of the early Solar System by analyzing magnetites in meteorites utilizing the wave nature of electrons. Within meteorites, the ...

Scientists find strong evidence that magnetic fields shape the weather on distant exoplanets for the first time.

WASHINGTON, June 2 (Reuters) - Based on the behavior of winds on seven large and hot gas exoplanets, astronomers have obtained the strongest evidence to date that planets beyond our solar system ...

The winds on seven hellish alien worlds are moving in the wrong direction. That strange anomaly just cracked open one of ...

When two probes orbiting the sun aligned with one another, researchers harnessed the opportunity to track the sun's magnetic field as it traveled into the solar system. They found that the sharply ...

This was achieved using TRACERS, NASA's twin satellites to sample and analyze high-energy electrons.

For the first time, scientists believe they have captured direct evidence of the mechanisms that trigger a solar flare. These massive explosions, generated by the Sun, release staggering amounts of ...

Scientists have proposed a spacecraft-based system to actively strengthen Earth's magnetic shield and reduce the impact of powerful solar storms.

Solar wind generated by the sun is probably driven by a process involving powerful magnetic fields, according to a new study led by UCL (University College London) researchers based on the latest ...
