magnetic fields

I research space weather. That’s how physicists describe how storms on the sun end up affecting us here on Earth.

The Earth’s magnetic field – known as the “magnetosphere” – protects our atmosphere from the “solar wind.”

Sound is carried by periodic vibrations of atoms in gases, liquids and solids.

At the Vulcan laser facility in the UK, scientists recreated a supernova in an attempt to find out more about the origin of magnetic fields.
