At China's SHMFF (Stable High Magnetic Field Facility) facility last September, scientists were able to create a powerful magnetic field for a short period, which was more than 800,000 times stronger than Earth's magnetic field. The structure produced a permanent magnetic field of 42.02. Tesla.
According to the foundation, after nearly four years of unremitting efforts, scientists and engineers have optimized the structure of the magnet, optimized the manufacturing process, and achieved a permanent magnetic field of 42.02 Tesla with a power supply of 32.3 mW. This surpassed the record set in 2017, when American researchers achieved 41.4 Tesla.
the The Earth's magnetic field is 0.00005 Tesla, in contrast, the Chinese have now reached 42.02 Tesla.Moreover, with the help of resistive magnets. In the case of hybrid magnets, which are a combination of resistive and superconducting magnets, scientists have already achieved an even higher value in 2022, when they created 45.22 Tesla, and at the US MagLab facility in 1999 they reached a peak of 45 Tesla.
A new Chinese record may help develop reliable magnets and maintain stronger magnetic fields. High-field magnets are essential tools for revealing hidden properties of advanced materials such as superconductors, which carry electricity without producing waste heat at extremely low temperatures.
