Van Allen radiation hinders and complicates spaceflight, magnetic instruments, and more.

Astronomers detected mysterious radio waves from the center of the galaxy that vary dramatically and seem to shut off at random.

Weak radio waves in the medium-wave band are sufficient to disrupt geomagnetic orientation in migratory birds, according to a particularly well-controlled study. But the underlying biophysics ...

During the American solar eclipses of October 2023 and April 2024, hundreds of radio amateurs will take to the airwaves - for science.

What better way to investigate the delicate beauty of the 'northern lights' than by blasting them with radio waves? Scientists working in Alaska have used such waves to make speckles of green ...

Mysterious bursts of radio waves from distant stars have a lot in common with earthquakes here on Earth, it turns out. Earthquakes and fast radio bursts — short, intense blasts of radio waves ...

James "Big Jim" Russell has been a radio DJ in Wichita Falls for 50 years, and is now mentoring the next generation of disc ...

Astronomers say they have successfully pinpointed the source of a blast of radio waves — known as fast radio bursts — to a source within our own Milky Way galaxy. The discovery could help ...

Electrical engineers have devised a low-cost method for passively locating sources of radio waves such as Wi-Fi and cellular communication signals. The technique could lead to inexpensive devices ...
