New study reveals, how foreshock waves interact with Earth’s magnetosphere. Foreshock waves are able to tune the shock, making it alternatively stronger or weaker. These waves could only be detected in a narrow region behind the shock. (Image: Lucile Turc)

How magnetism could help explain Earth’s formation

Rock samples collected near the Antarctic volcano Mount Erebus, seen here in the distance, harbor fingerprints of Earth’s ancient magnetic field. A new analysis delves into discrepancies between these fingerprints and predictions from a long-standing approximation of the field. Credit: Hanna Asefaw
