A new instrument gave the team minute - by - minute updates on the strengths of magnetic fields in the spots.
Physicists want to know the strength of the magnetic field and density of the plasma that surrounds these pulsars, which can be millions of times greater than the density of plasma in stars like the sun.
This receptor seems to measure the strength of the magnetic field — the field is generally strongest at the poles — and the angle of the field in relation to the ground, which also varies with latitude.
Another type of flux is magnetic flux which is used to describe the strength of magnetic fields.
«We do this by measuring the amount of weight being lifted and taking into account both the mass of particles in the lifter and the strength of the magnetic field being applied,» says Ben Evans, co-author of the paper and an associate professor of physics at Elon University.
