This resource is an introductory tutorial on magnets, appropriate for users with little or no background in physics. A variety of magnetic objects are discussed, including permanent and temporary magnets, electromagnets, pulsed magnets, and superconducting magnets. Users will be introduced to naturally-occurring magnets and temporary magnets that are switched on with electrical current. The tutorial also explores the 45 Tesla Hybrid Magnet, which produces the most powerful sustained field in the world.
This resource is part of the Magnet Academy provided by the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. Please note that this resource requires Java Applet Plug-in.
