Magnets are a crucial technology in our modern life. There are magnets in pretty much all electronics, most household ...

Strong magnets tend to be large and power-hungry, but a new design has produced a powerful magnet that fits in the palm of ...

Using magnets to treat depression sounds like a mad scientist’s scheme — but it actually works. The treatment — known as TMS, or transcranial magnetic stimulation — is backed up by years of research ...

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 ...

Magnetic levitation systems harness the unique properties of high-temperature superconductors and permanent magnets to achieve frictionless, contactless motion. The core principle underpinning these ...

Scientists are asking meteorite hunters to cease and desist using magnets to verify their finds. Even weak magnets can destroy valuable information concerning the magnetic field of its parent body and ...
