Magnetic force microscopy (MFM) is one of the modes of scanning probe microscopy (SPM). As the name implies, it is used to map magnetic characteristics. MFM investigates the local magnetic fields at ...

Scientists discover that the Earth's magnetic poles can take up to 70,000 years to reverse, much longer than previously ...

If you took introductory physics, you learned about the “fundamental forces.” It goes something like this: All interactions are the result of one or more of five basic forces: strong nuclear, weak ...

Scientists have observed atomic magnetic fields, the origin of magnetic forces, for the first time using an innovative Magnetic-field-free Atomic-Resolution STEM they developed. The joint development ...

Traditional magnetic separators, however, present a challenge: they generate a magnetic force that is very high near the side of the vessel closest to the magnet and decreases rapidly with distance.

When a charge is placed in a magnetic field, the charge experiences a magnetic force wherein the two conditions: 1) the charge is moving relative to the magnetic field 2) the charge’s velocity has a ...

From cardiovascular disease to cancer to gastrointestinal tract conditions, the incredible strength of neodymium iron boron (NdFeB) rare earth magnets is opening up exciting new opportunities for ...

When we hear about moving objects with electricity, most of us imagine a "pulling force." Positive and negative charges ...

The little ornaments holding pictures to your refrigerator and the giant cranes picking up cars in a junkyard are all using magnets. Magnets attract objects made of certain metals. They can also push ...

China achieves a superconducting magnet of 35.6 teslas, 700,000 times stronger than Earth's magnetic field, setting a world record.

An F-16 Fighting Falcon from the 412th Test Wing’s 416th Flight Test Squadron performs a fly-by of the air control tower at Edwards Air Force Base, California, The fact that GPS is vulnerable to ...

One of the common modes of scanning probe microscopy (SPM) is Magnetic force microscopy (MFM). As indicated by the name, SPM is used to map magnetic properties. On the nanoscale, MFM probes local ...
