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 ...

A team of physicists at the Technical University of Denmark has found the reason a spinning magnet can cause a secondary magnet to levitate without the need for stabilization. In their paper published ...

With a clever design, researchers have solved eddy-current damping in macroscopic levitating systems, paving the way for a wide range of sensing technologies. Levitation has long been pursued by stage ...

The scientists chemically coated each graphite particle with a layer of electrically insulating silica. Polyethylene glycol (PEG) helps silica bind to the surface of the graphite. The coated graphite ...

General Motors is looking to patent a magnetic levitation system that would replace conventional seat adjusters. As described in a patent application filed by GM with the United States Patent and ...

Dr. Christian Rudolf, an expert in parallel kinematics and magnetic drives, provides insights into PI's journey in developing magnetic levitation solutions for the semiconductor industry. “What makes ...

Bismuth is an unusual element that we don't encounter much in everyday life. But this pretty, iridescent metal, found near the bottom of the periodic table, exhibits some extraordinary properties.
