... A magnetic field is an area where the forces of attraction from a magnet are working. An electromagnetic field has the same effect as a magnetic field but it can be turned on and off by stopping the electricity which it requires. Electric motors are one of the main uses of electromagnetic fields. E ...

Superconducting magnet
A superconducting magnet is an electromagnet made from coils of superconducting wire. They must be cooled to cryogenic temperatures during operation. In its superconducting state the wire can conduct much larger electric currents than ordinary wire, creating intense magnetic fields. Superconducting magnets can produce greater magnetic fields than all but the strongest electromagnets and can be cheaper to operate because no energy is dissipated as heat in the windings. They are used in MRI machines in hospitals, and in scientific equipment such as NMR spectrometers, mass spectrometers and particle accelerators.
