- Maglev Trains
Around the world, scientists and engineers have been developing maglev trains – trains that levitate above a magnetic field.
- 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.
- Materials with Superpowers
So-called "high temperature" superconductivity holds tremendous promise, but before engineers can harness this super power, scientists must unlock the secrets behind these mysterious materials.
- MRI: A Guided Tour
These awesome diagnostic tools, powered by strong superconducting magnets, save countless lives with their ability to pinpoint tumors and other abnormalities.
- 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.
- 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.
- Materials Under the Microscope
These galleries are illustrated with beautiful photomicrographs (color photographs taken through an optical microscope) produced at the Magnet Lab.
