Bigger magnets aren’t always “stronger”. But how do you make a comparison between different magnets? One way is to determine the magnetic dipole moment of the magnet. Magnetic Dipole Moment ...

Inside this region, magnetic field lines conduct plasma particles to the dipole magnet; outside, magnetic field lines strike the vacuum vessel. ... Dipole Magnet, Doctoral Dissertation (MIT, 2008).

The superconducting magnets of the future are under development and CERN is on the front line. To increase the energy of circular colliders, physicists are counting on ever more powerful magnets ...

The Large Hadron Collider will consist predominantly of superconducting dipole magnets, which are the most complex components of the machine. Their superconducting coil allows them to convey ...

One advantage to using this setup is that the magnetic field and other parameters can be carefully varied and controlled. If the dipole magnet is switched off, all signs of a magnetosphere disappear.

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection ...

“Without rotation, the free magnet will rotate so the force becomes purely attractive and then the magnets will collide into each other. What makes the new magnetic levitation system so special is ...

If you've ever tried to put several really strong, small cube magnets right next to each other on a magnetic board, you'll know that you just can't do it. What happens is that the magnets always ...

Resistive magnets can create fields much more powerful than superconducting magnets, but the two together form a magnetic dream team. CHMFL’s 45.22 tesla hybrid magnet is the most powerful of ...

Magnetic fields lines are invisible but they fill the space around a magnet where the magnetic forces work on magnetic materials, and where they can attract or repel other magnets.
