If you have trouble understanding what &quot;magnetic wormhole&quot; means &#x2F; what researchers actually did, this figure from the original paper explains it pretty well:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nature.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;srep12488&#x2F;figures&#x2F;1" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.nature.com&#x2F;articles&#x2F;srep12488&#x2F;figures&#x2F;1</a><p>Note red lines showing magnetic field, how they get cloaked by spherical device, starting on right side, then they re-appear on the left side.<p>This is the figure they use to show &quot;wormhole&quot;, but it&#x27;s just the figure above with erased spherical cloaking device (which must be physically present, field is still there, just the device hides it):<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;d1o50x50snmhul.cloudfront.net&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;2015&#x2F;08&#x2F;dn28071-3_800.jpg" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;d1o50x50snmhul.cloudfront.net&#x2F;wp-content&#x2F;uploads&#x2F;201...</a><p>And this is how it looks in real life:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.uab.cat&#x2F;Imatge&#x2F;758&#x2F;790&#x2F;cucweb.jpg" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.uab.cat&#x2F;Imatge&#x2F;758&#x2F;790&#x2F;cucweb.jpg</a><p>Still very cool, but now you can see it&#x27;s basically just some sort of shielding of magnetic field that creates distortion of the field on the other end, nothing is getting teleported.
