Researchers Discover Magnets Secret
Saturday, 19. November 2005
Permanent magnets are an important component in a broad variety of technologies, from car starters to alternators for wind power generation to computer hard drives. Researchers at the U.S. DOE's Argonne National Laboratory have found new clues into ways to make those magnets longer-lasting and more powerful. Using the Western Hemisphere's most powerful X-rays at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne, they were able to see new details of rare-earth ions, a critical component of permanent magnets.
