The development of a new electromagnetic system could improve research and clinical capabilities through precise cell levitation.

Magnetic levitation systems harness the unique properties of high-temperature superconductors and permanent magnets to achieve frictionless, contactless motion. The core principle underpinning these ...

Researchers from the Southwest Jiaotong University in China have developed cars that use magnetic levitation technology to float above a track. The eight vehicles were recently tested in Jiangsu along ...

Recent advancements in magnetic-levitation (maglev) technology harbor the potential to radically transform the landscape of the freight industry. By integrating maglev technology into existing freight ...

Stanford Medicine researchers invent an electromagnetic device that can gently sort different types of cells by levitating them to different heights. It looks like a magic trick: Cells at the bottom ...

A team of researchers at the Quantum Machines Unit at the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST) in Japan have showed off a small piece of “gravity-free” graphite to levitate almost ...

Ultrasonic sound waves have been used to levitate objects in crowded rooms to make hologram-like displays. Such acoustic levitation was previously only practical in empty spaces, but a new algorithm ...

Forward-looking: Japanese researchers have developed a novel technique to levitate and manipulate small objects from reflective surfaces using only sound waves. In testing with a 3-millimeter ...

CHICAGO, Jan 7 (Reuters) - U.S. scientists have found a way to levitate the very smallest objects using the strange forces of quantum mechanics, and said on Wednesday they might use it to help make ...
