Abstract
This ring is the racetrack on which the future of ground transportation might be riding. Deng Zigang, a professor at Southwest Jiaotong University, in Chengdu, China, stands in the center of a prototype designed to test the latest turn in maglev (magnetic levitation) train technology. Right now, the best maglev trains reach speeds exceeding 400 kilometers (250 miles) per hour.
