The Wonders of Levitation
arXiv:1010.5761 · doi:10.1088/0031-9120/45/1/003
Abstract
I discuss some interesting classroom demonstrations of diamagnetism and how this effect can produce levitation. The possibilities for hands-on demonstrations of diamagnetic and superconducting levitation are discussed. To conclude I discuss some practical uses for levitation in daily life.
