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 ...

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 ...

Although the magnetic levitation system described in the 2015 paper allowed researchers to visually distinguish different ...

Topics about room-temperature superconductors have been spreading on Chinese social media amid a global wave of efforts to verify the synthesis of magnetic levitation-enabled LK-99 crystal, as Chinese ...

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 ...

Magnetic levitation demonstrated using a Dremel tool spinning a magnet at 266 Hz. The rotor magnet is 7x7x7 mm3 and the floater magnet is 6x6x6 mm3. This video show the physics described in the work ...

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 ...

When thinking of levitation, one often pictures a concentrated magician and a lady floating in the air, or a levitating guru. However, this is only an optical illusion or quackery. The physical ...

China already has the world's fastest commercial train system, but the country's engineers want their passengers to travel even faster. Beijing has developed and built the first prototype of a ...
