Scientists generated megatesla order magnetic fields – Tech Explorist

Scientists at Osaka University discovered a novel mechanism called a “microtube implosion,” and demonstrated the generation of megatesla (MT = 1010G) order magn…

Laboratory generation of strong magnetic fields have been intensively studied because such fields may realize new experimental tools for fundamental studies and support diverse applications. Still, the magnetic strength of familiar examples are relatively weak.
Geomagnetism is 0.30.5 gauss (G), and magnetic tomography (MRI) used in hospitals is about 1 tesla (T = 104 G). By contrast, future magnetic fusion and maglev trains will require magnetic fields on the kilotesla (kT = 107 G) order. To da…
