Using sound to get objects to float works well if a single particle is levitated, but it causes multiple particles to collapse into a clump in mid-air. Physicists at the Institute of Science and ...

The development of electrodynamic suspension (EDS) systems has significantly advanced magnetic levitation transport, offering robust levitation and guidance through electromagnetic interactions. At ...

Researchers report achieving self-sustaining and long-term levitation of millimeter-sized droplets of several different liquids without any external forces. To get the droplets to levitate, they use ...

This video explores the science behind a floating globe that appears to defy gravity using magnetic levitation. It explains ...

Researchers may have unlocked the potential for gravity-free technology. A new study published in Applied Physics Letters highlights how researchers have made huge breakthroughs in magnetic levitation ...

Imagine an entire chemistry laboratory reduced to the size of a postage stamp. It could happen. While others may think big, Texas A&M University physicists Don Naugle and co-worker Igor Lyuksyutov are ...

Physicists in Australia have become the first researchers to levitate a macroscopic object using lasers. The physicists used three lasers to form a levitational "tripod" that could hold a small mirror ...

What do you get if you take some magnets, superconductors, and liquid nitrogen, and a slow-mo camera to film them with? This kind of magical footage is what. This little demonstration of magnetic ...

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 ...
