ESA's Cluster mission has, for the first time, observed the extent of the region that triggers magnetic reconnection, and it is much larger than previously thought. This gives future space missions a ...
New simulations help to clarify the physics behind a recent discovery made by NASA’s Magnetospheric Multiscale mission spacecraft. Credit: NASA Goddard Space Flight Center In magnetic reconnection, ...
For the first time, scientists are looking at real data — not computer models, but direct observation — about what is happening in the fascinating region where the Earth’s magnetic field breaks and ...
Kicking off a $1.1 billion mission, a United Launch Alliance Atlas 5 rocket streaked into space Thursday, boosting four NASA satellites into orbit to study interactions between Earth's magnetic field ...
Researchers from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, under the direction of Prof. WANG Rongsheng and Prof. LU Quanming, used data from the ...
A team led by Southwest Research Institute (SwRI) has made the first direct detection of the source of magnetic reconnection. Analyzing data from NASA’s Magnetospheric Multiscale (MMS) mission, ...
NASA is launching four satellites in a $1.1 billion mission to study the high-speed interactions between Earth's magnetic field and the sun's to learn more about the mechanisms responsible for the ...
analysis in the Nov. 4 issue of Physical Review Letters. Magnetic reconnection should occur wherever magnetic fields clash. As the fields try to bend around one another, the field lines break and ...
