The National MagLab exists to provide magnetic fields that are more than a million times stronger than the Earth’s magnetic field to thousands of visiting researchers every year. Why would anyone want to do such a thing? It turns out that magnetic fields are a remarkably flexible research tool at the frontiers of research in physics, engineering, chemistry, environmental sciences, biology, and biomedicine. This talk by Gregory S. Boebinger, Professor of Physics, Florida State University, Director Emeritus, National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, will survey a variety of creative uses of high magnetic fields at the National MagLab to convey the excitement of present-day research using the strongest magnets in the world.
