MRI machines are evolving so that they're more patient-friendly. For example, many claustrophobic people simply can't stand the cramped confines, and the bore may not accommodate obese people. There are more open scanners, which allow for greater space, but these machines have weaker magnetic ...
Magnets are objects that produce magnetic fields and attract metals like iron, nickel and cobalt. The magnetic field's lines of force exit the magnet from its north pole and enter its south pole. Permanent or hard magnets create their own magnetic field all the time. Temporary or soft ...
Marcus Sperling explains, “The term ‘magnetic’ is also used metaphorically here to point to the unexpected quantum properties that are made visible by these representations. Similar to the spin of an electron, which can be detected through a magnetic field, magnetic quivers reveal certain proper...
Numerous earlier patents cover his various improvements to electron tubes and his systems for deflecting cathode rays and deflecting electron beams with electric and magnetic fields. US Patent 3,191,028: Electron scanning microscope by Manfred Von Ardenne and Bodo von Borries, patented May 13, 1941...

and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance88. Fifty percent of the 40 biosurfactant reports reviewed did not analyze their structure, likely due to the complexity of the structures87. Surfactin and/or protein-like biosurfactants (32.5%) are most commonly produced byLactobacillus, with studies on glycoproteins (7....
Electric Current All matter, including the iron rod of an electromagnet, is composed of atoms. Before the solenoid is electrified, the atoms in the metal core are arranged randomly, not pointing in any particular direction. When there is a current, the magnetic field penetrates the rod and rea...
Electromagnets are similar to other magnets in that they attract metal objects, but the magnetic pull is temporary. You can easily create a small electromagnet yourself by connecting the ends of a copper wire to the positive and negative ends of an AA, C or D-cell battery. This creates a ...
Light is part of the electromagnetic spectrum — it's made of high-frequency electrical and magnetic waves. These waves are fairly complex, but you can imagine them as similar to waves on water. They have peaks and troughs, and they travel in a straight line until they encounter an ...
