At Earth’s geomagnetic pole, a magnetic compass will spin aimlessly. The instrument that otherwise provides guidance fails us in the utter remoteness of place and moment. And that moment might be the ...

Black holes exert a tremendous influence on their surroundings, meaning that when they spin, they literally drag the very fabric of space and time around with them. That means nothing can sit still ...

We have different names to classify this behavior. A magnetar is a neutron star with an insanely powerful magnetic sphere.

The SPINNING project, under the leadership of the Fraunhofer Institute, is pioneering a quantum computer using diamond-based ...

If you're feeling puzzled, we're here to help break it down. Researchers at Paul Scherrer Institute (PSI), using muon spin ...

Wheel of Fortune' legend Pat Sajak took to social media with a surprising Election Day message that left fans buzzing.
