The mission is designed to gather information about the microphysics of magnetic reconnection, energetic particle acceleration, and turbulence — processes that occur in many astrophysical plasmas. [3] As of March 2020, the MMS spacecraft has enough fuel to remain operational until 2040. [4]
Transcranial magnetic stimulation is similarly argued to have demonstrated that weak EM fields can influence brain activity. [citation needed] McFadden proposes that the digital information from neurons is integrated to form a conscious electromagnetic information (cemi) field in the brain.
Magnetic reconnection is a breakdown of "ideal-magnetohydrodynamics" and so of "Alfvén's theorem" (also called the "frozen-in flux theorem") which applies to large-scale regions of a highly-conducting magnetoplasma, for which the Magnetic Reynolds Number is very large: this makes the convective term in the induction equation dominate in such regions.
The magnetospheric eternally collapsing object (MECO) is an alternative model for black holes initially proposed by Indian scientist Abhas Mitra in 1998 [1] [2] [3] and later generalized by American researchers Darryl J. Leiter and Stanley L. Robertson. [4]
A teacher could trick his AP Psychology students by saying, "Suggestibility is the distortion of memory through suggestion or misinformation, right?" It is likely that the majority of the class would agree with him because he is a teacher and what he said sounds correct. However, the term is really the definition of the misinformation effect.
There are ongoing missions using magnetometers, [example needed] including attempts to define the shape and activity of Saturn's core. The first spacecraft-borne magnetometer was placed on the Sputnik 3 spacecraft in 1958 and the most detailed magnetic observations of the Earth have been performed by the Magsat [1] and Ørsted satellites.
Compass needles in the Northern Hemisphere point toward the magnetic North Pole, although the exact location of it changes from time to time as the contours of Earth’s magnetic field also change.
Swarm is a European Space Agency (ESA) mission to study the Earth's magnetic field.High-precision and high-resolution measurements of the strength, direction and variations of the Earth's magnetic field, complemented by precise navigation, accelerometer and electric field measurements, will provide data for modelling the geomagnetic field and its interaction with other physical aspects of the ...
