Superconducting materials could play a crucial role in the energy-efficient applications of the future. However, several ...

Explore how energy is stored in an inductor and how to calculate the energy density of a magnetic field. A core concept in ...

But powerful magnets are usually large and energy hungry. Chukun Gao at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich ...

Superconductors are among the most puzzling materials in physics. They conduct electricity with zero resistance, but only ...

Spacecraft reentry environments lead to high magnetic Reynolds numbers, resulting in complex dynamics for magnetic flow ...

Professor Dallas Trinkle and colleagues have provided the first quantitative explanation for how magnetic fields slow carbon atom movement through iron, a phenomenon first observed in the 1970s but ...

This unique dual harvesting arrangement, which simultaneously harvests energy from magnetic fields and ultrasound sources, can provide more power than either one alone—at no cost. Why dual-source ...

Technical success can be initiated by a dramatic breakthrough or innovation, but it can also be the result of conscientious design with careful attention to execution details. We rely on both for ...

Astronomers have detected ordered magnetic fields in galaxies so young that conventional models struggle to explain how those ...
