The origin of the sun"s magnetic field could lie close to its surface
The sun's surface is a brilliant display of sunspots and flares driven by the solar magnetic field, which is internally generated through a process called dynamo action. Astrophysicists have assumed that the sun's field is generated deep within the s.....»»
New simulations reveal hot neutrinos trapped during neutron star collisions
When stars collapse, they can leave behind incredibly dense but relatively small and cold remnants called neutron stars. If two stars collapse in close proximity, the leftover binary neutron stars spiral in and eventually collide, and the interface w.....»»
Investigating nematode-microbe interactions in lab-simulated decomposed beetle environments
Beneath the surface, bacterivorous nematodes are key players in the nutrient cycle, consuming bacteria that decompose organic matter. Traditionally, these nematodes are studied in laboratory environments where isolated bacterial strains are used to m.....»»
Researchers observe a large anomalous Hall effect triggered by spin-fluctuating devil"s staircase
A research group from University of Tsukuba has discovered that fluctuations of electron spins in magnetic materials trigger a large anomalous Hall effect during phase transition known as the devil's staircase magnetic transition......»»
