Through catalysts and convoluted magnetic fields, the reactors converted ultrapure hydrogen into an exotic allotrope of hydrogen.

Even buckytube supermagnets are probably inadequate to this task, but a field too small to serve as an interstellar fuel scoop could still serve well as an unconfined magnetic particle shield.

Anything potent enough to put on such a show could well blow away the magnetosphere, the magnetic zone high above the Earth that normally protects us from ultraviolet rays and other cosmic assaults.

Using magnetic microscopy, scientists are able to study the minute tracks on magnetic tape and greatly increase data density, thus enabling intercept operators to pack ever more conversations into their recorders.

His mind and body had never entirely adjusted to a monopolar universe, a world where machines no longer had moving parts, switches, dials or knobs, but were only smooth-faced blocks of germanium-impregnated stone designed to trap magnetic monopoles and channel them into electrical paths impressed on the substance of the block.

Logan nodded, placed his holstered Gun inside the paravane, sealed the magnetic lock.
