A new study has unveiled the magnetic fields of a galaxy in the Ursa Major constellation, which was observed to be similar to the Milky Way’s. Using radio astronomy devices, researchers detected previously unknown magnetic field structures in the NGC 4217 galaxy, indicating that star formation and star explosions are accountable for these apparent structures. Researchers also observed that the galaxy has an X-shaped magnetic field structure, similar to what has been found in other galaxies including the Milky Way. They further noticed a helix structure and two huge bubble structures, known as “superbubbles”. The researchers suggested that the new map could be implemented to the Milky Way, providing scientists detailed insight into the home galaxy.
