Electromagnetic Adventures #3: Permanent magnets… in space!
Explore the structure of matter across many length scales to understand how permanent magnets work, and discover along the way that magnetism comes in more flavours than you’d expect.
-
Electromagnetic adventures #2: Currents 🔁 Magnets
Learn how electric currents can create magnetic fields as well as the opposite phenomenon – how changing magnetic fields can create electric currents.
-
How to create photons you can see
Learn how light is created, how incandescence (“warm light”) differs from luminescence (“cold light”) and how we use the latter in scintillation detectors.
