- Similar technological advances in accelerators, detectors, magnetic field generation and lasers have greatly assisted experimental work.
- When a beam of silver atoms was passed through a specially shaped magnetic field, the beam was split in a way correlated with the direction of an atom's angular momentum, or spin.
- During the Vietnam War era, the various AC-130 versions following the Pave Pronto modifications were equipped with a magnetic anomaly detector system called Black Crow (designated AN/ASD-5), a highly sensitive passive device with a phased-array antenna located in the left-front nose radome that could pick up localized deviations in the Earth's magnetic field normally used to detect submerged submarines.
- Epsilon Ursae Majoris has a relatively weak magnetic field, 15 times weaker than α Canum Venaticorum, but it is still 100 times stronger than that of the Earth.
- A weak magnetic field has been detected in the photosphere with a strength of around half a gauss.
- Early ammeters were laboratory instruments that relied on the Earth's magnetic field for operation.
- A compass is easier to use, though the deviation of the Earth's magnetic field from true north, known as its magnetic declination must be taken into account.
