EPFL scientists have developed a new technique that lets researchers watch, with unprecedented sensitivity, how materials ...

Fraunhofer IAF presents compact integrated quantum sensor at World of Quantum 2025 The highly integrated vector magnetometer ...

And that’s exactly what happened, at least some of the time. When the young sharks were exposed to the magnetic field of the place they were caught, off Florida’s Gulf Coast, they swam in ...

Earth’s Magnetic Field Might Weirdly Be Controlling the Air We Breathe, Scientists Say Magnetism and oxygen may intrinsically influence each other, but experts aren’t sure why.

According to Weijia Kuang, a geophysicist at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Centre, this correlation could help us to know the evolution of life and how it is relevant to the interior process of the ...

Earth’s oxygenated atmosphere and magnetic field make life possible, but scientists have discovered that there’s a hidden link between the two that’s stronger than we originally imagined.

Lund University A groundbreaking study from Lund University in Sweden shows that the Australian Bogong moth uses the stars and the Milky Way as a compass during its annual 1,000-kilometre journey to ...

Australia’s iconic bogong moths are the first creatures other than humans and some birds known to navigate by the night sky.

In 2021, researchers predicted that a geomagnetic reversal could lead to mass extinctions and climate chaos—not from the flip itself, but from the collapsing magnetic field. With Earth’s ...

Some may use special adaptations to sense the magnetic field that encompasses the planet. Others may use visual cues, such as following the Moon, the Sun, or landmarks. Previous research led by ...

Fraunhofer IAF is presenting the latest version of its compact integrated quantum magnetometer at World of Quantum in Munich, June 24–27. The diamond-based system is characterized by its robustness, ...
