While the views of the Northern Lights will be incredible, the geomagnetic storm may cause prolonged infrastructure issues.

Northern Lights may appear in the D.C. area and Colorado due to a G4 solar storm, with possible power and communication ...

Lead author Dr Denny Oliveira, of Nasa’s Goddard Space Flight Centre, Maryland, said: ‘Auroras and geomagnetically induced currents are caused by similar space weather drivers. ‘The aurora ...

ISTOCK / GETTY IMAGES PLUS "Auroras and geomagnetically induced currents are caused by similar space weather drivers," paper co-author Denny Oliveira, a researcher at NASA's Goddard Space Flight ...

Geomagnetic storms generate induced currents, which flow through the electrical grid. The geomagnetically induced currents, which can be in excess of 100 amperes, flow into the electrical ...

The induced voltage produces an induced current if the conductor is connected in a complete circuit. As with all currents, the induced current creates a magnetic field around itself. Note that ...

“Auroras and geomagnetically induced currents are caused by similar space weather drivers,” explained Dr Denny Oliveira of NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center, lead author of the article.

This article reviews the fundamentals, phenomena, devices and materials of spin-transfer torques, at the heart of this rapidly advancing field of current-induced magnetization dynamics.

Eddy currents, also called Foucault current, are loops of electrical current induced within a conductor by a time-varying magnetic field in that conductor (Figure 1). This phenomenon of induction was ...
