Because the magnetic field influences the structure of rocks (and clay pots) during their formation, knowing the field's history allows you to tie specific objects to specific ranges of dates.

A magnetic structure proposed for the natural oddity known as ball lightning makes an appearance in a newfound variety of a knotlike entity called a skyrmion, a team of scientists reports.

But then the evolution took a surprising turn: in all the simulations, no matter what the magnetic field looked like when the neutron star was born, the field took on a particular structure and its evolution dramatically slowed.

Using several years» worth of observations, they were able to build up a more complete picture of the magnetic field structure that supports the plasma, in structures known as prominences.

When the scientists switched on a specially designed magnetic field, the spins arranged into a twisting structure of loops, knotting up into a configuration known as a Shankar skyrmion.

He points out that this magnetic signal can be associated with large - scale processes of mountain formation, and how these ranges can be curved until they create structures known as oroclines: «With a rock sample, we can analyse a process that has occurred on the tectonic plate level; and, specifically, offers new data that allows us to discover how this orogeny or large Variscan range and its curvature occurred.

Researchers from Boston College and Harvard have created an elusive honeycomb - structured material capable of frustrating the magnetic properties within it in order to produce a chemical entity known as «spin liquid,» long theorized as a gateway to the free - flowing properties of quantum computing, according to a new report in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

The magnetic structures, known as undulators, bring the electrons into a slalom course, and with every turn they release extremely short - wavelength X-ray radiation, which intensify across the length of the undulator stretch.

The internal structures of giant planets are much less well known than those of main - sequence stars because of uncertainties in the equation of state of degenerate gas, the composition (typically non-solar), the interaction with the magnetic field and, in the upper layers, the relative magnitudes of internal heat and energy deposited from the sun.

Later, when the guys reached young adulthood, the research team created pictures of the structures in their brains using a technology known as MRI, for magnetic resonance imaging.

However, using a new technique known as sensitivity - enhanced nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), Whitehead Institute and MIT researchers have shown that they can analyze the structure that a yeast protein forms as it interacts with other proteins in a cell.

Due to the fact that a known visual pathway connects the only brain structures that have been shown to be active during magnetic orientation, our findings strongly support the hypothesis that migratory birds perceive the magnetic field as a visual pattern and that they are thus likely to «see» the magnetic field.
