👉 Watch the video of Sarah’s science experiment at Northwest Crossing Elementary! Hello parents, teachers and students! Try to make this floating magnetic ghosts with Meteorologist Sarah Spivey and ...

👉 Watch the video of Sarah’s school science experiment here! Hello parents, teachers and students! Are you looking for something fun and Halloween-y to do at home that has a little bit of science ...

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

Historically, prior to 1820, electricity and magnetism were thought to be separate entities of nature. On April 21, 1820, Hans Christian Oersted, a Danish physi ...

New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection experiments could function as highly precise gravitational wave detectors, thereby ...

Many of us treat magnetism like gravity -- for us Earthlings, it’ll always be there, and that compass will always point north... right? Well, believe it or not, Earth’s magnetic field has flipped back ...

Magnet technology has advanced, year-over-year, pulled by the desire of scientists for ever-higher magnetic fields. But progress has been paced by new developments in properties of materials needed to ...

In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.

China has set a new benchmark in extreme magnet science after researchers built the strongest all-superconducting user magnet ever. On Tuesday, the Chinese Academy of Sciences announced that a new ...

This section is focused on in vivo studies of human beings and animals in health and disease enabled by very-high-field magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy. Much of the material presented here ...
