Episode XL: Freakin Magnets, how do those work?

February 19, 2018

In this episode, Chris and Mike discuss the properties of magnets and magnetism.  When most people think of magnets, they think only of the tools used to hold artwork on their refrigerators.  But those so-called ferromagnets are only a small subset of the possibilities for magnetism.  We also discuss uses of magnets such as the giant magnetoresistance used in computer memory.
