Meissner effect

Shown is a self-build YBaCuO superconductor (black disc), which is cooled by liquid nitrogen. The metallic cube is a strong magnet. At such low temperatures the superconductor has no resistance, thus there is a current induced into the superconductor by the magnet which again produces a magnetic field with equal but inverse strength. This magnet field causes then the magnet to hover over the superconducter like shown in the video.

@xtotheznerd Then, they'd obviously have nothing particularly interesting or mysterious to study...

@ZIINNGG1234 get out the magic markers and paint his face while he's sleeping!

@lostbuffalo Gravity. *SNORE*

[lostbuffalo]

Gravity isn't a force or field it is the result of matter floating in dynamic space.the universe is expanding and space is flowing outward from the big bang. Space impedes light and light impedes space therefore matter and space are bound. Normally the presence of matter warps space flow such that space draws them together like bubbles on the surface of a fluid..here, both magnets are not drawn close by gravity or repulsed but fixed in dynamic space that has been flow-equalized

HACKS! *throws monitor*

i like how to guy watching is wearing gloves but the guy handling the nitrogen isnt :S

[xtotheznerd]

Imagine if this was actually being studied by some crazy area 51 physicists.

hey ,where did you find the supraconductor and what type of neodium magnet did you used ?

[Zantorc]

By introducing a magnetic field after it has become superconducting you have only demonstrated infinite conductivity - not the Meissner effect. To see the Meissner effect you would have to have the magnet on top of the superconductor and then cool it. If you then see the flux ejected and the magnet lift it would demonstrate the Meissner effect.

wow cool
