• Dilution Refrigerators
  Dilution fridges owe their cooling power to the incredible element helium. This animation illustrates how dil fridges exploit the element's properties to make things very, very cold.
• High B/T Program
  An overview of the Mag Lab's High B/T program, located at the University of Florida's Microkelvin Laboratory in Gainesville.
• Cryogenics for English Majors
  Samuel Taylor Coleridge lends a hand as we explore cryogenics – how to get things fantastically frigid – and the fascinating element that makes it all possible.
• What's Superconductivity?
  As defined by a Mag Lab expert.
• Superconductivity: Current in a Cape and Thermal Tights
  They don't call it super for nothing. Once you get a superconductor going, it'll keep on ticking like the Energizer Bunny, only a lot longer. The catch is, it needs to be kept colder than Pluto.
• What's a Superconducting Magnet?
  As defined by a Mag Lab expert.
• The World's Strongest Magnet
  A nine-minute audio slideshow on our world-record 45 tesla hybrid magnet, which combines the powers and advantages of both a superconducting magnet and a resistive magnet.
• Magnets: From Mini to Mighty
  If your knowledge of magnets ends with posting a to-do list on the fridge, add this to the list: Learn more about magnets! You can start here with a straightforward rundown of magnet types, uses and strengths, explained in a way that will help make the facts stick.
