  2. Helmholtz coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_coil

    A Helmholtz coil Helmholtz coil schematic drawing. A Helmholtz coil is a device for producing a region of nearly uniform magnetic field, named after the German physicist Hermann von Helmholtz. It consists of two electromagnets on the same axis, carrying an equal electric current in the same direction. Besides creating magnetic fields, Helmholtz ...

    Helmholtz's polyphonic siren, Hunterian Museum, Glasgow. Hermann Ludwig Ferdinand von Helmholtz (/ ˈ h ɛ l m h oʊ l t s /; German: [ˈhɛʁ.man vɔn ˈhɛlmˌhɔlts]; 31 August 1821 – 8 September 1894; "von" since 1883) was a German physicist and physician who made significant contributions in several scientific fields, particularly hydrodynamic stability.

  4. Mass-to-charge ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass-to-charge_ratio

    When charged particles move in electric and magnetic fields the following two laws apply: Lorentz force law: = (+),; Newton's second law of motion: = =; where F is the force applied to the ion, m is the mass of the particle, a is the acceleration, Q is the electric charge, E is the electric field, and v × B is the cross product of the ion's velocity and the magnetic flux density.

    The coil cancels the Earth's magnetic field within a central 6-foot (1.8 m) spherical volume. Fluctuations in the ambient field are removed by a servo control, producing stability to half a nanotesla. An artificial magnetic vector can be produced and rotated at a variable rate. 9.42-foot (2.87 m) Helmholtz coils are used for perm/deperm ...

  7. Maxwell coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell_coil

    Maxwell's geometry of the coils. A constant-field Maxwell coil set consists of three coils oriented on the surface of a virtual sphere. [1] According to Maxwell's original 1873 design: [2] each of the outer coils should be of radius , and distance from the plane of the central coil of radius .

  8. The Iberia Parish Coroner said because his cause of death was ruled natural, more information is not a public record. Lumpkin's family told KATC he had heart and lung diseases, and that it took the jail hours to provide him with medical help. The sheriff disputed this account, saying the family is "full of it."

  9. Biot–Savart law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biot–Savart_law

    Sec 5-2, Eqn (25) Loops such as the one described appear in devices like the Helmholtz coil, the solenoid, and the Magsail spacecraft propulsion system. Calculation of the magnetic field at points off the center line requires more complex mathematics involving elliptic integrals that require numerical solution or approximations.
