Tape is one of the most universal tools in today's society. We use it to keep things together, be a guide for painting, and we can use tape for a science experiment to understand friction! In this ...

A research team from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), on Friday, announced that it had achieved a major milestone in levitation technology by eliminating eddy-current damping in ...

Diamagnetism is a property of matter, superconductivity is a state of matter. Diamagnetism describes how a material reacts when plunged into a magnetic field. Paramagnetism is almost the same thing.

New video from SCTL Korea room temperature superconductor experimenters claimed to shows a very strong full levitation effect. Full levitation would be evidence of the Meissner effect found only in ...

Levitation isn't on the list of activities for most summer camps, but recently at Martin High School in Arlington, it was the focus. Outfitted with rubber aprons and safety goggles, high school ...

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 ...
