If there’s something more tedious than winding coils, we’re not sure what it is — possibly rolling and wrapping coins; that’s really a bother. But luckily, just like there are mechanical ways to count ...

Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...

Discover how to build a simple electric train using just a copper coil, an AA battery, and disc magnets in this step-by-step science experiment. Starting with basic materials, watch as we construct ...

Resistive magnets are built in-house at the magnet lab using so-called Florida Bitter technology pioneered by researchers there. Circular plates of copper sheet metal are stamped with cooling holes; ...

Little Big Coil: the record-breaking magnet is the size of a toilet roll core. (Courtesy: Stephen Bilenky/National MagLab) The highest continuous magnetic field ever created in the lab has been ...
