  2. Molybdenum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molybdenum

    Molybdenum is a chemical element; it has symbol Mo (from Neo-Latin molybdaenum) and atomic number 42. The name derived from Ancient Greek Μόλυβδος molybdos , meaning lead , since its ores were confused with lead ores. [ 12 ]

  3. Magnetic structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_structure

    The elements Dysprosium and Erbium each have two magnetic transitions. They are paramagnetic at room temperature, but become helimagnetic below their respective Néel temperatures, and then become ferromagnetic below their Curie temperatures. The elements Holmium, Terbium, and Thulium display even more complicated magnetic structures. [7]

  4. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The 1b 1 MO is a lone pair, while the 3a 1, 1b 2 and 2a 1 MO's can be localized to give two O−H bonds and an in-plane lone pair. [30] This MO treatment of water does not have two equivalent rabbit ear lone pairs. [31] Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) too has a C 2v symmetry with 8 valence electrons but the bending angle is only 92°.

  5. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    Paramagnetic materials are attracted to magnetic fields, hence have a relative magnetic permeability greater than one (or, equivalently, a positive magnetic susceptibility). The magnetic moment induced by the applied field is linear in the field strength, and it is rather weak. It typically requires a sensitive analytical balance to detect the ...

  6. Diamagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamagnetism

    Diamagnetic materials, like water, or water-based materials, have a relative magnetic permeability that is less than or equal to 1, and therefore a magnetic susceptibility less than or equal to 0, since susceptibility is defined as χ v = μ v − 1. This means that diamagnetic materials are repelled by magnetic fields.

  7. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    A very common source of magnetic field found in nature is a dipole, with a "South pole" and a "North pole", terms dating back to the use of magnets as compasses, interacting with the Earth's magnetic field to indicate North and South on the globe. Since opposite ends of magnets are attracted, the north pole of a magnet is attracted to the south ...

  8. Natural bond orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_bond_orbital

    In quantum chemistry, a natural bond orbital or NBO is a calculated bonding orbital with maximum electron density.The NBOs are one of a sequence of natural localized orbital sets that include "natural atomic orbitals" (NAO), "natural hybrid orbitals" (NHO), "natural bonding orbitals" (NBO) and "natural (semi-)localized molecular orbitals" (NLMO).

  9. Magnetorotational instability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorotational_instability

    In a magnetized, perfectly conducting fluid, the magnetic forces behave in some very important respects as though the elements of fluid were connected with elastic bands: trying to displace such an element perpendicular to a magnetic line of force causes an attractive force proportional to the displacement, like a spring under tension. Normally ...
