  2. Rare-earth barium copper oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_barium_copper_oxide

    After 2010, industrial manufacturers started to produce tapes, [12] with different layers encapsulating the ReBCO material, [13] opening the way to commercial uses. In September 2021 Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) created a test magnet with ReBCO tape that handled a current of 40,000 amperes, with a magnetic field of 20 tesla at 20 K.

  3. Metals of antiquity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metals_of_antiquity

    The metals of antiquity are the seven metals which humans had identified and found use for in prehistoric times in Africa, Europe and throughout Asia: [1] gold, silver, copper, tin, lead, iron, and mercury. Zinc, arsenic, and antimony were also known during antiquity, but they were not recognised as distinct metals until later.

  4. Ferrite (magnet) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrite_(magnet)

    Due to ceramic ferrite magnet’s weaker magnetic fields compared to superconducting magnets, they are sometimes used in low-field or open MRI systems. [ 41 ] [ 42 ] These magnets are favored in certain cases due to their lower cost, stable magnetic field , and ability to function without the need for complex cooling systems.

  5. Permalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permalloy

    Strip of permalloy. Permalloy is a nickel–iron magnetic alloy, with about 80% nickel and 20% iron content.Invented in 1914 by physicist Gustav Elmen at Bell Telephone Laboratories, [1] it is notable for its very high magnetic permeability, which makes it useful as a magnetic core material in electrical and electronic equipment, and also in magnetic shielding to block magnetic fields.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fossil_sites

    This list of fossil sites is a worldwide list of localities known well for the presence of fossils.Some entries in this list are notable for a single, unique find, while others are notable for the large number of fossils found there.

  7. Rare-earth magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_magnet

    Ferrofluid on glass, with a rare-earth magnet underneath. A rare-earth magnet is a strong permanent magnet made from alloys of rare-earth elements.Developed in the 1970s and 1980s, rare-earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets made, producing significantly stronger magnetic fields than other types such as ferrite or alnico magnets.

  8. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, steel, nickel, cobalt, etc. and attracts or repels other magnets.

  9. Scraper (archaeology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scraper_(archaeology)

    In prehistoric archaeology, scrapers are unifacial tools thought to have been used for hideworking and woodworking. [1] Many lithic analysts maintain that the only true scrapers are defined on the base of use-wear, and usually are those that were worked on the distal ends of blades—i.e., "end scrapers" (French: grattoir).
