Presentation Transcript

  1. Carlos R. Villa October 24, 2008 FAST Conference

  2. NHMFL Overview • One Of Three National Labs In The Southeast U.S. • One Of Nine High Magnetic Field Labs In The World • Only One In Western Hemisphere • Largest And Highest Powered In The World

  3. NHMFL Overview • User Laboratory • Over 800 User Visits (2005) • NSF Funded • Research Free To Scientist • Research In Many Fields (Not Just Magnets!!) • Biology, Chemistry, Biomedical, Geology, Engineering, Geochemistry, Materials Science, Physics, Microscopy…

  4. Gauss • Measurement Of Magnetic Field • Named For Carl Friedrich Gauss • Tesla • Measurement Of Larger Magnetic Fields • Named For Nikola Tesla • 10,000 Gauss = 1 Tesla

  5. Refrigerator Magnet: .03 T • Earth’s Magnetic Field: .000045 T • Person’s Magnetic Field: 3 x10-13 T • Junkyard Magnet: 1 T • MRI Magnet: 2-3 T

  6. NHMFL ICR Magnet: 9.4 T • Ionic Cyclotron Resonance • NHMFL 900 Mhz: 21 T • Nuclear Magnetic Resonance • NHMFL Resistive Magnet: 20-35 T • NHMFL Hybrid Magnet: 45 T • Resistive And Superconducting • NHMFL Pulse Magnet: 65 T • Not Continuous Field

  7. Not All Metals Are Magnetic • 3 Are Naturally Magnetic • Iron • Nickel • Cobalt • Exceptions To The Rule • Gadolinium (Must Be Frozen)

  8. Fe(II)Fe(III)2O4 • Naturally Magnetic Igneous Rock • Usually found in marine sands and deserts • Largest US deposit in NY (Adirondacks) • Lodestone Found In Arkansas • Different Crystalline Structure

  9. Electron Configuration • Normally Scattered • Magnetic Domains • In Magnets: Lined Up • Whenever You Get Electrons All Pointing The Same Direction, A Magnetic Field Is Produced Around That Item

  10. Electrons Are Naturally Aligned Pointing The Same Direction • Field Will Stay Until Destroyed • Curie Point • Electric Current • Degaussing • Bang It • Examples: Refrigerator Magnets, Bar Magnets, Magnetite, Horseshoe Magnets, Hematite, Buzz Stones, etc…

  11. Electrons Are Temporarily Aligned • Will Keep Magnetic Field Until Tampered • Examples: • Paperclips, Scissors, Staples, Thumb Tacks, Push Pins, Screwdrivers, Refrigerator, Car Doors, etc… • Anything that is magnetic, but will not keep its field

  12. Field Viewers • Box Photo Frames • Iron Filings • Use With Paper • Clean-up Can Be A Mess

  13. One Bar Magnet • As Many Compasses As You Can Gather

  14. Ward’s Scientific

  15. Magnetize An Item • Allow It To Float • Must Turn Freely • Needle • Petri Dish • Coffee Stirrer • Water • Permanent Magnet

  16. The Two Are So Closely Related • Where There Is Electricity, There Is A Magnetic Field • Where There Is A Magnetic Field, Electricity Can Be Created

  17. Electricity Is The Movement Of Electrons • Electrons Flow In One Direction • This Alignment Of Electrons Creates A Magnetic Field • Similar To Electrons Lining Up In A Permanent Magnet • So Every Wire Carrying Electricity Has A Weak Magnetic Field Around It (Try It) • Coiling The Wire Concentrates The Magnetic Field Inside The Coil

  18. Materials • Copper Wire • Iron Rod • Battery • Extensions: • 2 Batteries • In Line? • Aluminum, Wooden Rod • Will They Work?

  19. Right Hand Rule • Direction Of Field • Poles (Winding Direction) • Use Magnaprobe • Variables: • Neatness • Number Of Winds • Wire Gauge • Battery Strength • Temperature

  20. Bitter Plates

  21. Bitter Plates

  22. Bitter Plates

  23. Iron In Cereal • Total • Baby Food • Need A Strong Magnet • Neodymium

  24. A Special Solution Of Magnetic Particles In A Colloidal Suspension Whose Flow Can Be Controlled By Magnets Or Magnetic Fields. Ferrofluids

  25. Ferrofluids • Make Your Own: • Oil, Petri Dish, Magnet • Please Be Careful • Iron Filings: • Education Innovations • Post Apple Scientific • Actual Ferrofluids Available: • Carolina Biological • Educational Innovations

  26. When an emf is generated by a change in magnetic flux according to Faraday's Law, the polarity of the induced emf is such that it produces a current whose magnetic field opposes the change which produces it.

  27. Changing Magnetic Flux Produces An Induced Electric Field • Copper Tube, Neodymium Magnet

  28. Use Copper Wire To Attach LED Lights On A Plastic Pipe.

  29. Superconductors Exhibit Two Distinct Properties • Zero Resistance • Perfect Diamagnetism

  30. Diamagnetic Behavior Is Limited • YBCO Works Well • Kit Available From Colorado Superconductor Inc.

  31. Additional Resources • Driving Force • The Natural Magic of Magnets • James D. Livingston • NSTA Press: Stop Faking It • Electricity and Magnetism

  32. Additional Resources • http://education.magnet.fsu.edu • MagLab Alpha Download • K-12 Programs • RET Program

  33. Business Cards • Please Do Not Hesitate To Contact Me With Questions, Ideas, Suggestions… • Free Pencils In The Back • Free Magnets Too!
