Remarkably, these experiments revealed that molybdenum ditelluride can exhibit superconductivity and magnetism at the same ...

The film demonstrates an experiment using an apparatus to observe the behavior of electrons in a uniform magnetic field. It explains how electrons are accelerated by an electron gun and then deflected ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Rossendorf (HZDR) have uncovered previously unobserved oscillation ...

A new initiative is emerging at the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), the U.S. Department of Energy national laboratory managed by Princeton University. Under the direction of principal ...

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 1845, physicist Michael Faraday provided the first direct evidence that electromagnetism and light are related. Now, it turns out that this connection is even stronger than Faraday imagined. In his ...

Magnets are essential tools that help scientists explore the deepest mysteries of physics, materials, and energy. While everyday magnets feel powerful, they are far behind the massive machines built ...
