Summary:

Methods of freely, magnetically, suspending rotors in air, in various media, and in a vacuum are described. Rotors weighing from 106 lb to over 100 lb have been suspended and spun, but both larger and smaller rotors can be employed. Rotor speeds in excess of 106 rps and centrifugal fields of over 109 g have been obtained. When "coasting" freely in air at a pressure of 109 torr, ḟ/f ~ 109 sec1, were ḟ is the loss in rotor speed per second at a speed "f." A double magnetic suspension also will be described
