On September 22, the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Steady High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CHMFL) sustained the strongest magnetic field using a resistive magnet, at 42.02 tesla. This surpasses the ...

It would be an understatement to say that the Earth's magnetic field is important. It's one of the reasons we're able to live ...

Today bulky and expensive superconducting magnets are used to generate the strong magnetic fields (about seven tesla) needed for precision NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance). While portable magnets have ...

Scientists have announced that they achieved the highest magnetic field strength ever recorded for an accelerator steering magnet, setting a world record of 14.1 teslas, with the magnet cooled to 4.5 ...

Scientists at the Florida State University-based National High Magnetic Field Laboratory just created what they claim to be the world’s strongest magnetic field using a toilet paper roll-sized magnet ...

How can you produce a magnet with exactly the right magnetic field? A research team now has a solution: for the first time, they have created magnets with a 3D printer. Today, manufacturing strong ...

Moroccan rocks reveal that Earth’s magnetic field once changed fast but followed a hidden order, helping scientists map ...

A new 3-D printing technique can create paper-thin "magnetic muscles," which can be applied to origami structures to make them move.
