Cells at the bottom of a liquid medium begin levitating, then hovering at a particular height. With no physical contact, an ...

Suspending soft, sticky or fragile objects between magnets may be a way to rotate and position them in 3-D space without needing to touch them. Manually manipulating these kinds of objects can damage ...

Physicists may be one step closer to achieving a form of clean energy known as nuclear fusion, which is what happens deep inside the cores of stars. A recent experiment with a giant levitating magnet ...

A new experiment that reproduces the magnetic fields of the Earth and other planets has yielded its first significant results. The findings confirm that its unique approach has some potential to be ...

When two magnets are placed facing each other with the same poles, they repel each other, and if you place one magnet under the other, it is possible to make one magnet float. However, simply ...

Thanks to the research of magnetic levitation in the conditions of microgravity, a new technology for 3D printing of biological tissues was developed Thanks to the research of magnetic levitation in ...

A new device that uses magnetic levitation to emulate the reduced gravities found on celestial bodies such as the Moon and Mars is 1000 times larger by volume than previous systems of its kind, paving ...

With a clever design, researchers have solved eddy-current damping in macroscopic levitating systems, paving the way for a ...

The rearrangement of plasma as a result of turbulence is among the most important processes that occur in planetary magnetospheres and in experiments used for fusion energy research. Remarkably, ...
