👉 Watch the video of Sarah’s science experiment at Northwest Crossing Elementary! Hello parents, teachers and students! Try to make this floating magnetic ghosts with Meteorologist Sarah Spivey and ...

China has set a new benchmark in extreme magnet science after researchers built the strongest all-superconducting user magnet ever. On Tuesday, the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced that a new ...

Chief meteorologist Mark Dixon gets an explanation of 'the straw trick' in Jan. 26's Science Sunday.

Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...

It is not known when humans first noticed the attraction or repulsion between pieces of magnetic material. The first important device depending on these forces was the magnetic compass, which is ...

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection experiments could function as highly precise gravitational wave detectors, thereby ...

You’ve probably heard the term magnetic gradient before, but have you ever seen one? Now you can in [supermagnetman’s] video, below. The key is to use very fine (2 micron) iron filings and special ...

In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.

Magnet technology has advanced, year-over-year, pulled by the desire of scientists for ever-higher magnetic fields. But progress has been paced by new developments in properties of materials needed to ...
