The film demonstrates an experiment using an apparatus to observe the behavior of electrons in a uniform magnetic field. It explains how electrons are accelerated by an electron gun and then deflected ...
Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...
The video explains the concepts of magnetic, electric, and gravitational fields using simple demonstrations. It shows how iron filings reveal the magnetic field around a magnet, how charged objects ...
Dark matter search: Team co-leader Christopher Tunnell is an associate professor of physics and astronomy at Rice University. (Courtesy: Jeff Fitlow/Rice) A tiny neodymium particle suspended inside a ...
For the first time, scientists have built a fusion experiment using permanent magnets, a technique that could show a simple way to build future devices for less cost and allow researchers to test new ...
Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3. This video show the physics described in the work ...
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 ...
In most conventional semiconductors, thermal conductivity decreases as temperature rises because heat-carrying lattice vibrations—called phonons—scatter more frequently.
