Remarkably, these experiments revealed that molybdenum ditelluride can exhibit superconductivity and magnetism at the same ...
Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...
No one has ever probed a particle more stringently than this. In a new experiment, scientists measured a magnetic property of the electron more carefully than ever before, making the most precise ...
Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3. This video show the physics described in the work ...
In 1929, Ernest Orlando Lawrence invented the cyclotron: a compact, efficient particle accelerator that used magnets. Two ...
The so-called muon anomaly, first seen in an experiment at Brookhaven National Laboratory in 2001, hasn’t budged. For 20 years, this slight discrepancy between the calculated value of the muon’s ...
For more than a century, engineers have chased new ways to turn the planet’s natural motions into usable power, from tides to ...
