Scientist Built the World’s Most Powerful Resistive Magnet. It Could Change the Future of Superconducting.

Clocking in 42.02 Tesla, this magnet will hopefully power future discoveries in the field of material science.

• On September 22, the Chinese Academy of Sciences’ Steady High Magnetic Field Laboratory (CHMFL) sustained the strongest magnetic field using a resistive magnet, at 42.02 tesla.
• This surpasses the previous record, which was set by the U.S. National High Magnetic Laboratory back in 2017.
• Open to international collaborators, this high magnetic field will hopefully help scientists make innovations in material science—particularly in the realm of superconductors.
