Two German physicists have reimagined how to create powerful and uniform magnetic fields using compact permanent magnets. By ...

But why is bismuth so strongly repelled from magnets?. According to Eric Riesel, a magnetic materials chemist at MIT, the answer comes down to the type of magnetism exhibited by bismuth.Every ...

Two German physicists have unveiled a compact magnet layout that outperforms the famed Halbach array, delivering stronger, ...

But a new finding by MIT physicists is challenging this century-old assumption. advertisement. ... Indeed, these two properties are what could enable magnetic levitation (Maglev) trains, ...

Magnetic levitation (MagLev) technologies are rapidly evolving, offering transformative methodologies in materials characterisation, precision engineering and process automation. By balancing ...

The team is pushing the boundaries of what is possible with magnetic levitation, and with any luck, we’ll see new applications for the technology becoming more widely available in the coming years.

Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3.

Magnetic levitation is already employed in systems such as Maglev trains, flywheels and high-speed machinery. Now researchers at the Technical University of Denmark have given this old technology a ...
