If you want to stick something on your fridge, like really get it stuck on hard there, you might want to talk to the scientists at the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory. They’ve just build the most powerful superconducting magnet ever, shattering the world record.
Its magnetic field clocks in at 32 tesla in strength. That’s 33 percent higher than the previous record, and 3,000 times stronger than a small fridge magnet, making this a larger increase than all the improvements in superconducting magnets from the last 40 years combined.
“This is a transformational step in magnet technology, a true revolution in the making,” said MagLab Director Greg Boebinger.
