Levitating chairs from the Jetsons still have a few years of becoming a commercial product though they are fun to think about. One such curious inventor, [Conor Patrick], took a deep dive into the ...

Hybrid magnet for "neutron scattering" experiments to be built. The planned magnet will produce a magnetic field between 25 tesla and 30 tesla -- more than half a million times stronger than the Earth ...

Everyone knows that when you hold a compass in your hand the needle will point north thanks to Earth's magnetic field, but aside from simple navigation you probably don't spare much thought for our ...

It’s true! We’ll explain how and why grapes can be shoved around with a magnet — at least under the right circumstances — and why the phenomenon behind it is helping physicists levitate things. Here’s ...

RIVERSIDE, Calif. -- Physicists at University of California, Riverside, have designed an experiment to explain the concept of magnetic resonance. The project was carried out by undergraduate students ...

Are you looking for engaging and educational activities to spark your child’s curiosity? A great solution is to set up easy science experiments that use everyday household items and bring science to ...

The Standard Model, also known as the Theory of Almost Everything, describes how the fundamental particles of the universe interact. But the model isn’t complete: It fails to account for dark energy ...
