Scott Deakin will join Lydall, Inc. (CSA CSM) as its new executive vice president and chief financial officer, effective September 8, 2015. He was formerly executive vice president and chief financial officer at Ensign-Bickford Industries, Inc.

MT24, the 24th International Conference on Magnet Technology, will take place at the Coex Center, Seoul, Korea, October 18-23. The conference, organized by The Korean Institute of Superconductivity and Cryogenics, will cover magnet technology ranging from large scale magnets to magnets for home appliances.

MIT physicists have created a superfluid gas, the so-called Bose-Einstein condensate, for the first time in an extremely high magnetic field. The magnetic field is synthetic, generated using laser beams, and is 100 times stronger than that of the world’s strongest magnets. Within this magnetic field, the researchers could keep...

Last month, a group in the Fermilab Technical Division aced three tests—for alignment, current and temperature—of a prototype transport solenoid module built for the Mu2e experiment by magnet experts at Fermilab's Technical Division and INFN-Genoa in Italy. The triple milestone means that Fermilab can now order the full set for...

Scientists on the NOvA experiment recently saw their first evidence of oscillating neutrinos, confirming that the extraordinary detector built for the project not only functions as planned but is also making great progress toward its goal of a major leap in our understanding of these ghostly particles.

For the first time, scientists have tracked ultrafast structural changes, captured in quadrillionths-of-a-second steps, as ring-shaped gas molecules burst open and unraveled. Ring-shaped molecules are abundant in biochemistry and also form the basis for many drug compounds. The pioneering study, conducted at SLAC's Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS), points the...
