Strong magnets tend to be large and power-hungry, but a new design has produced a powerful magnet that fits in the palm of ...
When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...
Magnets are a crucial technology in our modern life. There are magnets in pretty much all electronics, most household ...
A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...
Winding a thin tape of superconducting material tightly enough can form a powerful magnet the size of a wristwatch. This could enable the creation of more sensitive nuclear magnetic resonance devices ...
A newly developed model defines the upper limit to the strength of planetary magnetic fields. The model can help better ...
A new study reveals Earth's magnetic flips can last up to 70,000 years, exposing life to increased solar radiation.
