Get it a little higher, and I can use my microwave oven to acquire a proton NMR spectrum!
In the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in the U.S. sits "Little Big Coil", the most powerful continuous magnetic field ever created by humans - reaching 48.7 tesla, over 1 million times stronger than Earth's magnetic field.
This record-breaking magnet uses a hybrid design, combining superconducting coils with a resistive magnet to push matter into regimes never seen before.
Backed by $195M from the NSF and ongoing state funding, NHMFL scientists use it to study quantum materials, extreme superconductivity, fusion-relevant physics, and exotic states of matter.
Under fields this intense, atoms distort, electrons behave strangely, and materials reveal secrets that could redefine quantum technology, energy systems, and medical science.View quoted post on X
No power: means no heat and no Fibre Internet. At least my grow light can work on battery and keeps the place bright!
If you did not get your pizza last night in Halifax, I found it this morning. It was on the floor for 14 hours, so I did not sample it.
