The Lithium Lorentz Force Accelerator (LiLFA) as one of the most promising candidates for planetary exploration and heavy payload orbit raising missions. Although initial experimental data on the ...

When currents in wires run parallel, the wires attract due to the magnetic fields from the currents and the Lorentz force. The currents can also be run anti-parallel, making the wires repel. Place the ...

Physicists in Canada have proposed a new way to use lasers to probe ultrafast processes in nuclei. Thomas Brabec and colleagues at the University of Ottawa and the Steacie Institute of Molecular ...

Scientists have discovered an elegant way of manipulating light using a 'synthetic' Lorentz force -- which in nature is responsible for many fascinating phenomena including the Aurora Borealis.

MIT researchers have engineered a device that delivers a tiny, high-pressure jet of medicine through the skin without using a hypodermic needle. Afraid of needles? New needleless drug delivery ...
