Figure 1 Schematic diagrams of two superconducting flux qubit circuits. The conventional qubit (a) requires an external magnetic field to operate optimally, while the new flux qubit (b), using a ...

In recent research by scientists at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech), a groundbreaking discovery was made about braided magnetic flux ropes, which are found both in laboratory ...

The basic performance of a simple helical flux compression generator, driven by 200 g of high explosives, has been studied with current-voltage measurements and optical diagnostics. Emphasis has been ...

You may have heard of “EMI suppression” or “RF antenna” sheets, which are thin, flexible magnetic shields. Maybe they have been seen laying around the laboratory, typically black or gray in color, but ...

Investigating solar corona structures has led Paul Bellan, Caltech professor of applied physics, and his former graduate student Yang Zhang (Ph.D. '24) to discover a new equilibrium state of the ...
