Researchers have uncovered friction without contact—driven entirely by magnetic interactions. As two magnetic layers slide, ...

Halbach magnet arrays represent an innovative approach in the design of permanent magnets for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) applications. By arranging magnets in a specific, asymmetrical ...

If you want a strong magnet, the obvious answer is to buy one. However, for a variety of reasons, you might want to combine several smaller magnets. There are a few ways to do this, but the Halbach ...

The D’Onghia magnetic shielding crew hat, or CREW HaT, is a system that uses electromagnetic coils to deflect cosmic radiation from astronauts. The system consists of: A ring of electrical coils ...

Researchers at the University of Konstanz have uncovered a new mechanism of sliding friction: resistance to motion that ...
