Researchers of the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Institute of Plasma Physics (ASIPP) record experiment data in Hefei, east China’s Anhui Province, Sept. 28, 2025. (Xinhua/Wu Huijun) HEFEI, Sept. 28 (Xinhua) — Chinese scientists announced on Sunday that they have successfully generated a steady magnetic field of 351,000 gauss with a fully superconducting magnet, setting a new world record. The breakthrough …

IN A NUTSHELL 🌌 The James Webb Space Telescope provides new insights into Sagittarius B2, a crucial star-forming region in the Milky Way. 🔭 Webb’s infrared capabilities reveal details of cosmic dust and protostar formation that were previously hidden. 🌀 Strong magnetic fields in Sagittarius B2 may act as barriers to efficient star formation, according to recent data. 🌠 Discoveries …

Earth’s magnetic field dramatically flipped roughly 41,000 years ago. Now you can actually ‘hear’ this epic upheaval, thanks to a clever interpretation of information collected by the European Space Agency’s Swarm satellite mission. Combining the satellite data with evidence of magnetic field line movements on Earth, geoscientists mapped the Laschamps event and represented it using natural noises like the creaking …

Based on multi-year data from the Event Horizon Telescope (EHT), the finding reveals a dynamic and unstable region just outside M87*’s event horizon. While the black hole’s shadow has remained unchanged, the surrounding magnetized plasma has undergone dramatic shifts, offering new clues about how black holes interact with their surroundings. Located about 55 million light-years away, M87* is a supermassive …

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it’s a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has fundamental physical limits that restrict how compact and energy-efficient a transistor can be. MIT researchers have now replaced silicon with a magnetic semiconductor, creating a magnetic transistor that could enable …

Robert Redford, the actor and director who sailed to Hollywood stardom with turns in classics such as “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” and “All the President’s Men” and invigorated American independent cinema as one of the founders of the Sundance Film Festival, died Tuesday morning. He was 89. Cindi Berger, his publicist, said he died at his home “in the mountains …

In mid-September, a new wave of solar activity is expected. Scientists predict magnetic storms between September 15 and 20, 2025, which may affect the well-being of weather-sensitive people. During these days, fluctuations in blood pressure, headaches, and fatigue are likely, specifically in those with cardiovascular problems. We have gathered the forecast, the most dangerous dates, and doctors’ advice on how …
