Scientists found that carbon enabled Earth’s core to solidify. Without it, the inner core may not exist. A team of scientists from the, University of Leeds, and University College London has uncovered ...

A team of geophysicists say that an enormous mass shifted deep beneath the Earth's surface 18 years ago, as spotted by NASA ...

New research has identified a new restriction on the chemistry involved in the Earth’s core, explaining how it was able to crystallize millions of years ago. According to this work, the core would ...

As they whirl around in low-Earth orbit, satellite configurations are far more sensitive to changes in Earth's gravity field ...

It is now thought that the source of this anomaly was a phase transition in which one mineral’s structure was altered.

You probably learned in high school chemistry class that core electrons don't participate in chemical bonding.

Research suggests some metals’ semicore electrons may be more active on Earth’s surface than previously thought.

Earth's invisible magnetic field acts as a vital shield, protecting life from dangerous cosmic radiation and solar particles.

Alfred Wilson-Spencer receives funding from the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) grants NE/T000228/1 and NE/V010867/1. He works for the University of Leeds. The iron-rich core at the centre ...

Earth's mantle is a restless, enigmatic engine that powers volcanism, recycles crust, and regulates the long-term evolution ...

As early as 2024, scientists from the US and China discovered that the Earth’s core had slowed down and even stopped moving in relation to the Earth’s crust. But until now, the general public—that’s ...
