Researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory are harnessing the power of computers to ...

Over two centuries ago, physicist Michael Faraday described how electric current running through a coil of wire can create a magnetic field. This magnetic field can then induce an electric field ...

When you push the magnet through the middle of the coil, an electric current is produced ... as this helped to concentrate the magnetic field.

The world’s first superconducting planar coil magnet array successfully created and controlled stellarator-relevant magnetic field structuresThe ...

Slip rings maintain constant contact with the same sides of the coil As one side of the coil moves up through the magnetic field, a potential difference is induced (created) in one direction.

Back in 1832, the celebrated British physicist, Michael Faraday, carried out a set of experiments designed to answer a tantalizing question: could electricity be generated by Earth's rotation through ...
