A Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) is an extremely sensitive magnetometer that measures very subtle magnetic fields. It exploits the quantum mechanical properties of ...

A powerful new technique harnesses swirling plasma inside laser-blasted microtubes to produce record-breaking magnetic fields—rivaling those near neutron stars—all within a compact laboratory setup.
