Discover the surprising way a magnet and coil can power an LED! In this video, we explore the fascinating physics of electromagnetic induction, showing how moving a magnet through a coil of wire can ...

Rare earth magnets made from neodymium and other elements are a key component of modern electronics and electric motors, ...

Magnets are notoriously codependent. Try to break apart a magnet's north and south ends, and each half gets its own fresh set of two poles. Scientists have long hunted for a lone north or south ...

A 0.5-tonne superconducting magnet recently hovered silently inside a 5-meter-wide vacuum chamber, which marked ...

Since their relatively recent appearance on the commercial scene, rare-earth magnets have made quite a splash in the public imagination. The amount of magnetic energy packed into these tiny, shiny ...

The Earth's magnetic field and oxygen evolved together over 540 million years, according to a major NASA study.

The element cobalt is considered a typical ferromagnet with no further secrets. However, an international team led by HZB researcher Dr. Jaime Sánchez-Barriga has now uncovered complex topological ...
