Researchers at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida, have pushed a palm-sized superconducting coil to 42 tesla, placing a device small enough to hold in one hand within ...

Researchers at ETH Zürich have built the most powerful miniature superconducting magnets ever demonstrated, ...

The Tesla coil is a resonant transformer that generates AC electric fields that can power fluorescent lights and neon tubes, as well as produce high-voltage arcs. It is essentially structured as a ...

Looking for a neat trick to do with your Tesla coil? [The Action Lab] uses his coil to make a metal plasma — in particular, sodium. You can see the results in the video below. To create a metal plasma ...

An oversized Tesla coil is a movie and a photograph which are blowing out lightning violently. The Tesla coil is also big, so the lightning is also getting thick. If you are doing such experiments in ...

If you have a thing for Tesla coils (and who doesn’t really) you will be interested in this experiment/history lesson about wireless power put on by Omega Recoil at this year’s Maker Faire. During the ...
