Levitated Micromagnets in Superconducting Traps: A New Platform for Tabletop Fundamental Physics Experiments

Entropy 24(11), 1642 (2022) Andrea Vinante, Chris Timberlake and Hendrik Ulbricht Magnetically levitated microparticles have been proposed as mechanical sensors with extreme sensitivity. In particular, micromagnets levitated above a superconductor can achieve very low levels of dissipation and thermal noise. In this paper, we review recent initial experiments and discuss the potential for using these…
