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

If permanent magnets are repeatedly knocked, the strength of their magnetic field close magnetic field An area around a magnetic material or the moving electric charge through which the force of ...

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

Many of the magnets used in everyday life, like refrigerator magnets, are known as permanent magnets. In these materials, the magnetic fields of many atoms in the material have become permanently ...

Permanent magnets aren’t typically switchable. They’re always doing their magnet thing. However, if you align them with a bunch of other magnets in just the right way, you can create a … ...

The magnetic field around a circular loop of wire is similar to that of a bar magnet. When an electric current flows through the loop, it generates a magnetic field.

Since magnetic particles are sprinkled throughout the gallium, a permanent magnet can drag it around. In solid form, a magnet can move the material at a speed of about 1.5 meters per second.

Earth's magnetic field can be visualized if you imagine a large bar magnet inside our planet, roughly aligned with Earth's axis. Each end of the magnet lies relatively close (about 10 degrees) to ...

That magnet is strong, representing roughly 75 percent of the intensity of Earth's magnetic field at the surface. Of course, a bar magnet is not a perfect representation — it's actually electric ...
