In 1929, Ernest Orlando Lawrence invented the cyclotron: a compact, efficient particle accelerator that used magnets. Two ...

Create your own magnetic slime and discover how ferromagnetic materials interact with magnetic fields. You'll learn about magnetism, viscosity, and chemical reactions while making a fascinating ...

A team of scientists have discovered a new particle or a quantum excitation, which was previously undetectable, using a tabletop experiment. Named the axial Higgs mode, the new elusive particle is a ...

Some of Earth’s largest climate systems may collapse not with a bang, but with a whimper. Surprisingly, experiments with magnets are helping us understand how. We now widely accept that greenhouse ...

This web site is devoted to magnetism and the cool experiments you can do with permanent magnets and electro-magnets. Some of the experiments are very basic – things you’ve done since second grade.
