The first module of CMS superconducting magnet is leaving towards Cern: a huge solenoid, which will hold the world record of stored energy
The first module of the five constituting the CMS superconducting magnet is sailing on January 21st from Genova port to Cern. CMS (Compact Muon Solenoid) is one of the experiments that will take place at the accelerator Lhc (Large Hadron Collider), under construction at Cern in Geneva. The device will arrive after a 10-days travel. One of the most... view more... (2004-01-20)
Physicists set 'speed limit' for future superconducting magnet
A research team led by a Northwestern University physicist has identified a high-temperature superconductor — Bi-2212, a compound containing bismuth — as a material that might be suitable for the new wires needed to one day build the most powerful superconducting magnet in the world, a 30 Tesla magnet. view more (2007-02-12)
FSU's Magnet Lab to build world's strongest magnet designed for 'neutron scattering' experiments
The Hahn-Meitner Institute in Berlin has contracted with the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory and Florida State University to build an $8.7-million hybrid magnet for "neutron scattering" experiments. view more (2007-04-05)
Questions over 'healing effect' of magnet therapy
Patients should be advised that magnet therapy has no proved benefits, and that any healing effect is likely to be small, say US researchers in this week's BMJ. view more (2006-01-06)
Big magnet ready to face the big questions of the universe
The largest superconducting magnet ever built has successfully been powered up to its operating conditions at the first attempt. Called the Barrel Toroid because of its shape, this magnet is a vital part of ATLAS, one of the major particle detectors being prepared to take data at CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC), the new particle accelerator... view more...

Physicists at UC Santa Barbara make discovery in quantum mechanics
Physicists at UC Santa Barbara have made an important advance in quantum mechanics using a superconducting electrical circuit. The finding is reported in this week's issue of the journal Nature. view more (2009-09-24)
New superconducting transformer is light and compact
Researchers from the Technology Foundation STW and the University of Twente, in cooperation with Smit Transformatoren and Smit Draad, have developed a prototype coil for a superconducting transformer which is not only light and compact but also energy-efficient. A keen interest has already been expressed by several companies. The coil is made from... view more... (2002-02-19)
Using a magnet to tune a magnet
An international research team, led by scientists at the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN), has found a way to switch a material's magnetic properties from 'hard' to 'soft' and back again -- something which could lead to new ways of controlling electromagnetic devices. view more (2007-08-02)
Powerful superconductor is in a class all its own
Superconductivity has perplexed, astounded and inspired scientists ever since it was discovered in 1911. Now, in the latest of a century of surprises, researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory at Florida State University have discovered unusual properties in a novel superconducting material that point to an entirely new kind of... view more...

Engineers at Florida State University's National High Magnetic Field Laboratory have successfully tested a groundbreaking new magnet design that could literally shed new light on nanoscience and semiconductor research. view more (2007-11-01)
Revamped experiment could detect elusive particle, physicists say
An experiment called "shining light through walls" would seem hard to improve upon. But University of Florida physicists have proposed a way to do just that, a step they say considerably improves the chance of detecting one of the universe's most elusive particles, a candidate for the common but mysterious dark matter. view more (2007-04-26)
Superconductivity can induce magnetism
When an electrical current passes through a wire it emanates heat - a principle that's found in toasters and incandescent light bulbs. view more (2008-09-12)
Nuclear physicists examine oxygen's limits
Physicists at the National Superconducting Cyclotron Laboratory (NSCL) at Michigan State University have made a unique measurement of an exotic oxygen nucleus, leading scientists one step closer to deciphering the behavior of the element at its limits of existence. view more (2007-09-14)
Strain has major effect on high-temp superconductors
Just a little mechanical strain can cause a large drop in the maximum current carried by high-temperature superconductors, according to novel measurements carried out by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). view more (2007-02-16)
