The magnetic field is shown by lines with arrows that point from north to south. You can tell how old some coins are by testing them with a magnet. 5p and 10p coins made before January 2012 are ...

“The current behaviour of magnetic north is something that we have never observed before,” William Brown, a global geomagnetic field modeler at the British Geological Survey, said in a statemen ...

While the geographical North Pole stays fixed in place (at the very summit of the Earth's rotational axis), the WMM pinpoints the magnetic North Pole – where Earth's magnetic field points straight ...

During solar minimum, the sun's magnetic field is close to a dipole, with one north pole and one south pole, similar to Earth's magnetic field. But as we shift toward solar maximum, "the sun's ...

And then there is the North Magnetic, or dip, Pole, which is where field lines are perpendicular to the surface. It is this third pole that has been doing all the movement. When first identified ...

The average Hackaday reader likely knows, at least in the academic sense, what a magnetic field looks like. But as the gelatinous orbs in our skull can perceive only a tiny fraction of the EM ...
