The U.S. Air Force is preparing to test a new pod-based positioning system that should be able to replace satellite-based GPS in an emergency. The system would look down—not up—for positioning data ...

Using a laser to stimulate a photocurrent and a magnetic field to control it, researchers have devised a scheme for measuring a current’s flow stream. Why there’s a need to assess current-flow ...

I THINK there is, in Another Place, possibly some misunderstanding concerning the inertia of a moving charged conductor due to the magnetic energy set up by its motion. It depends upon the ...

The U.S. Air Force, concerned that adversaries might target its fleet of GPS satellites in wartime, is looking into Earth’s magnetic field as an alternative, according to Defense One.Accurate and ...
