Abstract: PERMANENT-MAGNET alternators have been used for many years in small-sized units such as tachometer generators, governor frequency sources, and magnetos, but until recently have not been ...
The entire process is energy intensive, costly, and risks contaminating local water. Magnetic strength in the magnets used in electric motors is measured in tesla (where 1 tesla = 10,000 Gauss ...
A solution proposed by a team of scientists at the North Carolina State University is a metamaterial that can change shape in response to magnetic fields. This material had to be easily deformable ...
(Credit: Yanik Chauvin/Shutterstock) The north magnetic pole, located closer to Canada a century ago, is now on its way toward Siberia. Right on time for the surge of holiday travel, a new iteration ...
unoriented Alnico V rough-cast magnets and a unique combination of high carbon steel slugs under the wound strings”. Having played a set at length in a PRS Modern Eagle II, I can confirm their ...
Executive Editor David Carnoy has been a leading member of CNET's Reviews team since 2000. He covers the gamut of gadgets and is a notable reviewer of mobile accessories and portable audio ...
It's time to recalibrate the navigation systems on ships, airplanes, and (given the time of year) Santa's sleigh: the position of the magnetic North Pole is officially being changed, continuing its ...
NASA is closely monitoring the South Atlantic Anomaly, which is a growing dent in the Earth's magnetic field that allows charged solar particles to approach the surface. A huge 'dent' anomaly in the ...
The needle of a compass has guided humanity for centuries, pointing unerringly toward the magnetic north. But what happens when that point moves — and accelerates? This week, scientists unveiled ...
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive biomedical imaging technique that uses a strong oscillating magnetic field to induce endogenous atoms such as hydrogen, or exogenously added ...
