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 ...
Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...
Researchers studying a distant spiral galaxy have found that large-scale, ordered magnetic fields existed far earlier in ...
In a magnetic confinement fusion reactor, a strong magnetic field generated by a superconducting magnet confines ultra-high-temperature plasmas of more than 100 million degrees Celsius. The ...
Researchers have identified a potential mechanism that explains how turbulent plasma can produce the vast, ordered magnetic ...
