Unlike Earth, the Moon doesn't have much of a magnetic field – and yet, a strange pile of rocks on the far side seems mysteriously magnetized. A new study suggests that a major cataclysm, over and ...

Scientists may have solved the mystery of why the moon shows ancient signs of magnetism although it has no magnetic field today. An impact, such as from a large asteroid, could have generated a cloud ...

Where did the moon's magnetism go? Scientists have puzzled over this question for decades, ever since orbiting spacecraft picked up signs of a high magnetic field in lunar surface rocks. The moon ...

NASA’s Apollo missions brought back moon rock samples for scientists to study. We’ve learned a great deal over the ensuing decades, but one enduring mystery remains. Many of those lunar samples show ...

The rare earth tetraborides, in which magnetic rare earth ions are arranged in a frustrated Shastry-Sutherland lattice, have emerged as a fertile ground for exploring complex magnetic phenomena. The ...
