Figure 1: Illustration of the real-time in-situ magnetisation reprogramming method. (A) nesting of multiple tubes containing magnetic units into an integrated tube; (B) expansion of the number of ...

A bizarre 'magnetic tentacle robot' that can pass into the narrow tubes of the lungs to take tissue samples could help save lives, a new study shows. Experts at the University of Leeds have created ...

Although it was defeated by a vacuum tube and almost no longer used, Germany suddenly adopted it for a V2 rocket and regained its rights, but this time it was defeated by a transistor and was no ...

Hijacking sperm cells to create little robots might seem far out, but that's exactly what researchers from the Dresden Institute for Integrative Nanosciences have done. Their "spermbots" consist of ...

First proposed by Elon Musk, the theoretical transportation system we call hyperloop would propel people- or cargo-filled pods over long distances through steel tubes. Magnetic levitation and big ...

"It is literally space transport on earth," Daryl Oster, founder and CEO of U.S.-based ET3, told On The Island's Gregor Craigie. "It's car-sized vehicles that are magnetically levitated and they ...

Surprisingly high level of surface contaminations of magnetic stir bars escapes regular cleaning and brings highly reactive traces of metal species from previous experiments to the next ones. With ...

In a paper published in Nature, scientists from the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, introduce a method by which they can reprogram a stack of magnetic tubes in real ...
