Discover the fascinating world of magnetism and electricity with these hands-on science experiments! This video demonstrates ...

You’ve probably heard the term magnetic gradient before, but have you ever seen one? Now you can in [supermagnetman’s] video, below. The key is to use very fine (2 micron) iron filings and special ...

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 ...

Explore the fascinating magnetic properties of burnt matchsticks in this creative science experiment! Watch how ring and bar ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

BOTHE and Kolhörster 1 wore the first to show that the cosmic rays manifest themselves to us as highly penetrating corpuscular rays. Direct experimental data on the nature as well as on the energy of ...

Obtaining reliable estimates of the absolute palaeointensity of the Earth’s magnetic field is notoriously difficult. The heating of samples in most methods induces magnetic alteration—a process that ...

Physicists have designed an experiment to explain the concept of magnetic resonance. A versatile technique employed in chemistry, physics, and materials research, magnetic resonance describes a ...
