The film demonstrates an experiment using an apparatus to observe the behavior of electrons in a uniform magnetic field. It explains how electrons are accelerated by an electron gun and then deflected ...

Like cats, magnets for physics experiments can have many lives. In 2015, researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Argonne National Laboratory repurposed two MRI magnets as part of a ...

Tokamaks are machines that are meant to hold and harness the power of the sun. These fusion machines use powerful magnets to ...

John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis won the Nobel Prize in physics on Tuesday for research on the weird world of sub-atomic quantum tunneling that advances the power of everyday ...

The 2025 Nobel prize in Physics has been awarded to three scientists for the discovery of an effect that has applications in ...

The video explains the concepts of magnetic, electric, and gravitational fields using simple demonstrations. It shows how iron filings reveal the magnetic field around a magnet, how charged objects ...

In Hefei, China, physicists switched on a new machine that pushed magnetic fields to record strength. As the device powered ...

A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...

Madison, scientists at startup Realta Fusion published two papers outlining the viability of the magnetic mirror design for nuclear fusion devices, making it competitive with more highly-researched ...

A group of scientists headed by Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s Trevor David Rhone, Assistant Professor in the Department of Physics, Applied Physics, and Astronomy, has discovered novel van der ...
