New results published in the journal Physical Review Letters detail how a specially designed metamaterial was able to tip the ...

One of the most efficient forms of renewable energy, solar power, is generated by solar cells, which are the building blocks of solar panels. These electronic devices use semiconductors to convert the ...

The type of switch you choose decides not only the bulk of your typing experience, but also the kind of performance and features you can expect from your keyboard. Mechanical switches might be the ...

Lasers are often used for heating materials, but they can also be harnessed for localized cooling of ICs. Laser cooling works ...

The universe is soaked in weak-but-persistent magnetic fields. Despite decades of research, astronomers still aren't exactly sure where these magnetic fields came from. But new research suggests they ...

“We find that both exhibit strong linearly increasing trends, coupled with a large surge in magnitude between 330 and 220 ...

Illustration of the global coronal magnetic field as the sun rotates. The background is the solar corona observed in extreme-ultraviolet waveband, with global coronal magnetic field maps measured ...

A combination of a dynamo-generated magnetic field and massive impacts could explain the highly magnetized rocks in some lunar regions.

The excited electrons interact with the Earth's magnetic field and emit red light, and he amount of red light indicates the strength and orientation of the magnetic field at that location.

Everything CCEA students need to know about how magnetic fields interact to produce the motor effect for GCSE Physics.
