2: Superconducting NMR magnets

i love science...thanks for the invisible dog thing...that was cute =)

"invisible dog" LOL!

The magnetic fields will only make things better! Magnets are awesome! Especially superconducting ones!!! Man, you really need to become a Youtube partner!!!

Do you ever worry about the effects on you health being around such an intense magnetic field for long periods of time?

Does anyone that works there ever experience nausea, unexplained sense of fear or a sensation of being watched?

Nope.

AC magnetic fields are found to have numerous bio-effects, but constant DC fields do not.

Oh! well, I didn't know that... thanks for clarifying.

Students say that if you stick your head below the tank, where the field is strongest, then shake it back and forth, weird things happen. I haven't tried it myself.

@wbeaty

well but your legs werent shaking

Cool :D
1:26 scared me

My research is actually concerned with isolating the exact mechanism by which materials become superconductors in hopes of predicting what material configurations might have even higher transition temperatures (the temperature at which a material becomes a superconductor). The results are promising, Transition temperatures of 138K plus have been recorded in Cuprates. Anything above 77k is considered a "high temperature" super conductor.
