Magnetic monopoles have provided a rich field of study, leading to a wide area of research in particle physics 4,5,6, solid-state physics 7, ultra-cold gases 8, superconductors 9, cosmology 4 and ...

The first author of the manuscript, finishing a novel high pressure NMR probe for a new set of experiments. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the 08 December 2017, issue of Science ...

Hybrid magnet for "neutron scattering" experiments to be built. The planned magnet will produce a magnetic field between 25 tesla and 30 tesla -- more than half a million times stronger than the Earth ...

The Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer collaboration has just presented its latest results. These are based on the analysis of 41 billion particles detected with the space-based AMS detector aboard the ...

New Zealand-based fusion energy startup OpenStar Technologies says it has become the first commercial company in the world to successfully create and confine plasma using a levitated dipole reactor.

Sparks fly: the electromagnetic flux-compression experiment lights up as a huge current is delivered to magnetic coils. (Courtesy: Shojiro Takeyama) Researchers in Japan have created a long-lasting ...

Imagine that you're a scientist, going out on a limb to design and build an experiment that everyone expects will see absolutely nothing. You're invested in physics at the fringes: looking for a sign ...

An all-superconducting magnet built by Chinese scientists has generated a world-record steady magnetic field of 35.1 tesla, about 700,000 times stronger than Earth’s magnetic field. The development ...
