Magnets are found all over the place. They hold items on the refrigerator while also holding the door shut. Our banking cards have magnetic strips — as do speakers, motors, and automatic doors.

When we think of powerful magnets used in particle accelerators or for NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance), we often envision bulky machines, sometimes the size of buildings. But in an extraordinary ...

There are currently several superconducting materials used for design and fabrication of high-field magnets. 1 The most widely established of them—low-temperature superconductor NbTi—is the workhorse ...

The field of molecular magnetism is rapidly evolving towards the use of magnetic molecules and molecule-based magnetic materials in physics-driven and nanotechnology-driven fields, in particular ...

Magnets are defined as substances that can generate a magnetic field. Magnetic fields in modern medicine are widespread due to their physical and chemical properties. As such, there are many uses of ...

The properties of magnetism have puzzled and intrigued humanity for as long as its existence, but its origins are often associated with ancient Greece. Magnetism's earliest chronicler in Greece, the ...

The U.S. national laboratories and universities, along with industrial partners, have a long history of leadership and have made critical contributions to the development of accelerator magnets for ...
