The question is: Where did these enormous magnetic fields come from? "It clearly cannot be related to the activity of single galaxies or single explosions or, I don't know, winds from supernovae," said Franco Vazza, an astrophysicist at the University of Bologna who makes state-of-the-art computer simulations of cosmic magnetic …Web

Students visualize the magnetic field of a strong permanent magnet using a compass. The lesson begins with an analogy to the effect of the Earth's magnetic field on a compass. Students see the connection that the compass simply responds to the Earth's magnetic field since it is the closest, strongest field, and thus the compass responds to …Web

Joe Kirschvink is determined to find out. For decades, he has shown how critters across the animal kingdom navigate using magnetoreception, or a sense of Earth's magnetic field. Now, the geophysicist at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) in Pasadena is testing humans to see if they too have this subconscious sixth sense.Web

We then generalize these results to an important law of electromagnetism, called Ampère's law. 12.1: Prelude to Sources of Magnetic Fields. In the preceding chapter, we saw that a moving charged particle produces a magnetic field. This connection between electricity and magnetism is exploited in electromagnetic devices, such as a computer ...Web

Figure 21.1. 3: The magnetic field lines produced by a circular loop of current, I, are the same as those produced by a bar magnet. In a magnet, the electrons in the material are moving in such a way that the magnetic fields that they generate are all in the same direction. Each atom is like a small magnetic dipole, and all of these are aligned.Web
