Is it posible to avoid the sonic boom using some kind of magnetic field around the object?
Is there any investigation been carried away by USAF or anyone?

there are proposals to use lasers to superheat air in front of the nosecone of craft. Hotter air has a higher speed of sound, so the craft would (locally) break sound barrier at higher speed. also, heat -> lower density, so maybe the sound waves would be weaker, reducing the boom.
The increase in apparent sonic length of the aircraft from stem to stern, due to gradient diagonalization in the jet stream, is the same effect as diminished boom at an equivalent diagonal with no jet stream.
This equation is both empirical and derived from the Reynolds condition(vJ+vA)/vA=L/L(sin([the]))=1/(sin([the]))
Where vJ is the jet stream velocity, vA is the velocity of the aircraft, L the length of the aircraft, and [the] the angle from the ground to the plane [with observer at its vertex].
A sonic boom is a loud noise caused by shock waves created when an object travels through the air faster than the speed of sound.
Sonic booms can be disruptive to people and animals, causing damage to structures and potentially causing hearing damage. They also have a negative impact on the environment.
No, it is not possible to completely avoid sonic boom. Any object traveling faster than the speed of sound will create a sonic boom. However, it is possible to reduce the intensity and frequency of sonic booms.
Sonic boom can be minimized through careful design of airplanes and other supersonic objects. This can include shaping the object to reduce shock waves and using specialized engines or propulsion systems.
Yes, there are regulations in place for sonic boom. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has established guidelines for supersonic flights over land to minimize the impact of sonic boom on the ground. Additionally, some countries have banned supersonic flights over land.
