A study using the Very Large Array radio telescope may have discovered a magnetic field on exoplanet YZ Ceti b. Magnetic ...

While radiation treatments designed to kill cancer cells have come a long way, scientists and doctors are always exploring new ways to zap tumors more effectively. Recent tests at the U.S. Department ...

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 ...

Friction usually announces itself through contact. A chair scraping across a floor, a tire gripping asphalt, a hand sliding ...

Researchers found friction can occur without contact, driven by magnetic dynamics, and does not always increase with load. The effect could enable controllable, wear-free technologies.

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 ...

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 ...
