Earth’s magnetic shield is shifting in dramatic ways. New data from ESA’s Swarm satellites show that the South Atlantic Anomaly — a vast weak spot in Earth’s magnetic field — has grown by nearly half ...
Investigating solar corona structures has led Paul Bellan, Caltech professor of applied physics, and his former graduate student Yang Zhang (Ph.D. '24) to discover a new equilibrium state of the ...
Figure 1 Schematic diagrams of two superconducting flux qubit circuits. The conventional qubit (a) requires an external magnetic field to operate optimally, while the new flux qubit (b), using a ...
