Researchers deploy an array of microscopic coils to create a magnetic field and stimulate individual neurons. The magnetic field can induce an electric field in any nearby neurons, the same effect ...

Little Big Coil: the record-breaking magnet is the size of a toilet roll core. (Courtesy: Stephen Bilenky/National MagLab) The highest continuous magnetic field ever created in the lab has been ...

Is more always better? Researchers from Doshisha University in Kyoto, Japan, sought to find out if that was the case for measuring magnetic field strengths. Their paper, appearing this week in AIP ...

Scientists are pursuing the proposition of clean and inexhaustible power from nuclear fusion through a variety of experimental reactor designs, and one of the more interesting examples is a roughly ...

A team of researchers working at the National Ignition Facility, part of Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, has found that covering a cylinder containing a small amount of hydrogen fuel with a ...

Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, potentially opening the door to affordable, lab-scale high-field science. Generating ...

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that delivers magnetic pulses to the brain to change neural activity. It is used to treat mental health disorders, particularly ...

The magnetic field strength inside the exciting coil of an SST increases the farther away the coil is from the specimen. The researchers proposed that a double H-coil method would not only suppress ...
