Superconductor Stator Patent to Influence Future Military Efforts

Superconductor Stator Patent to Influence Future Military Efforts | In Compliance Magazine

Earlier this year, a patent was awarded to a group of scientists for an innovative technology that enables a magnetic flux compression generator to produce an electromagnetic pulse (EMP). The technology was developed at the Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division in Virginia.

Traditional magnetic flux compression generators produce a high voltage pulse output that works in conjunction with an EMP generator. This new patented technology was used to create a device that could produce a short duration, highly localized EMP that is controlled by the superconducting stator. These new smaller generators would provide higher power pulses with very fast rise times making them ideal for a variety of military and industrial applications.

A Dash of Maxwell’s: A Maxwell’s Equations Primer – Part Two

Maxwell’s Equations are eloquently simple yet excruciatingly complex. Their first statement by James Clerk Maxwell in 1864 heralded the beginning of the age of radio and, one could argue, the age of modern electronics.

Read more about the superconductor stator technology and the impact it will have on future military projects.
