We're learning about that the powerful relationship that drives most of the technology we use everyday. Joshua Allen and his niece, Kyla from The Protege Project demonstrate electromagnetism.
It allows describing richer and more varied situations. This shows that, in theory, electromagnetism can be explained solely from the geometry of spacetime—just as Einstein had done for gravity.
Distant suns provide the most precise test of electromagnetism yet A new study of ‘solar twins’ shows a fundamental constant appears to be the same throughout our local galactic neighborhood.
Einstein's aim was to explain electromagnetism as a geometric property of four-dimensional spacetime. He continued this work until his death in 1955. The work was not completed.
Throughout the 19th century, a series of discoveries illuminated the nature of light. Learn how these scientists contributed to electromagnetism.
Discover the fascinating world of electromagnetism with our step-by-step guide on how to make the simplest motor at home. This video reveals the basic principles of creating a functional motor using ...
Our theory of electromagnetism is arguably the best physical theory humans have ever made — but it has no answer for why electromagnetism is as strong as it is.
Physics We may be about to solve the greatest riddle of electromagnetism Physicists have long wondered why particles can only have an electric charge of +1, -2 or any whole number.
Echoes of Electromagnetism Found in Number Theory A new magnum opus posits the existence of a hidden mathematical link akin to the connection between electricity and magnetism.
Originating from Earth’s core and atoms themselves, magnetism is the invisible force that shapes our everyday lives. Here’s how magnets actually work.
