Two German physicists have unveiled a compact magnet layout that outperforms the famed Halbach array, delivering stronger, ...

Rice University scientists have built a magnetic levitation sensor to spot quantum-level oscillations caused by ultralight ...

Japan, renowned for its technological innovations, is on the brink of revolutionizing the automotive industry with the development of magnetic levitation (maglev) cars. This groundbreaking ...

Magnetic levitation — bismuth's ability to seemingly float between two magnets — is perhaps one of the most interesting. The repulsion between bismuth and the magnets is so strong, it causes ...

The team is pushing the boundaries of what is possible with magnetic levitation, and with any luck, we’ll see new applications for the technology becoming more widely available in the coming years.

Magnetic levitation is already employed in systems such as Maglev trains, flywheels and high-speed machinery. Now researchers at the Technical University of Denmark have given this old technology a ...

Gravity basically isn’t part of the physics equation when spin-stabilized levitation enters the fray. As research continues to build on a new type of magnetic levitation—which features a ...
