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

In the air people breathe, the water on Earth, the stars in the sky and more, atoms are the building blocks that make up the ...

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 ...

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.

A major defense against everything space throws at us, Earth’s magnetic field may even protect the moon from damaging ...

Historically, prior to 1820, electricity and magnetism were thought to be separate entities of nature. On April 21, 1820, ...

IBM (NYSE: IBM) today announced new results that its quantum computer can simulate real magnetic materials with results that ...

Electrical conductivity experiments use four to eight tungsten wires, magnetic susceptibility experiments require a microloop of about ten turns of wire, and high-temperature experiments use eight ...

A research paper described a region between Earth and the Moon where cosmic rays are deflected by our planet's magnetic field ...
