Click to viewWhile many hurdles are keeping us stuck here on Earth, our solar system’s deadly radiation is chief among them. But scientists now think that a thumb-sized magnet could produce a force ...

Last month, a new superconducting magnet reached its design field of 11.5 Tesla at a temperature nearly as cold as outer space. It is the first successful twin-aperture accelerator magnet made of ...

Magnetic separation systems began appearing in scrap yards after World War II when heavy duty shredders used for grinding automobiles started to pop up across the United States. The early magnetic ...

Florida State University is claiming a record 25 Tesla from a ‘split’ magnet – a magnet made in two halves to allow it to include ports to view experiments at its core. “It has four big ports cut into ...
