[NewCandle] Artificial electron orbital

[Keith Nagel]

Hi All:

Yale geeks make a persistant electron orbital with ordinary
aluminum rings.

The detector of the current was a micromechanical device,
not a SQUID. Apparently you can get x10 more sensitive readings
with this detector. Arguably a more valuable commercial discovery
than the experiment itself depending on how applicable
it would be to measuring magnetic fields outside of this application.
