  2. Rotating magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_magnetic_field

    The rotating magnetic field is the key principle in the operation of induction machines.The induction motor consists of a stator and rotor.In the stator a group of fixed windings are so arranged that a two phase current, for example, produces a magnetic field which rotates at an angular velocity determined by the frequency of the alternating current.

  3. Earth's magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field

    A magnetic field is a vector field, but if it is expressed in Cartesian components X, Y, Z, each component is the derivative of the same scalar function called the magnetic potential. Analyses of the Earth's magnetic field use a modified version of the usual spherical harmonics that differ by a multiplicative factor.

  4. Faraday effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday_effect

    Faraday rotation is an important tool in astronomy for the measurement of magnetic fields, which can be estimated from rotation measures given a knowledge of the electron number density. [14] In the case of radio pulsars , the dispersion caused by these electrons results in a time delay between pulses received at different wavelengths, which ...

  5. Dynamo theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamo_theory

    By experimentally applying a certain velocity field to a small magnetic field, one can observe whether the magnetic field tends to grow (or not) in response to the applied flow. If the magnetic field does grow, then the system is either capable of dynamo action or is a dynamo, but if the magnetic field does not grow, then it is simply referred ...

  6. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    The rotating magnetic field is a key principle in the operation of alternating-current motors. A permanent magnet in such a field rotates so as to maintain its alignment with the external field. Magnetic torque is used to drive electric motors.

  7. Field-reversed configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Field-reversed_configuration

    A rotating magnetic field is produced by external magnetic coils perpendicular to the axis of the machine, and the direction of this field is rotated about the axis. When the rotation frequency is between the ion and electron gyro-frequencies, the electrons in the plasma co-rotate with the magnetic field (are "dragged"), producing current and ...

  8. Ferraris' motor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferraris'_motor

    Ferraris discussed the elementary theory of the apparatus, pointing out that the inductive action would be proportional to the slip, that is to say to the difference between the angular velocity of the magnetic field and that of the rotating cylinder, that the induced current in the rotating metal would also be proportional to this; and that ...

  9. Geomagnetic pole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geomagnetic_pole

    Like the North Magnetic Pole, the North Geomagnetic Pole attracts the north pole of a bar magnet and so is in a physical sense actually a magnetic south pole. It is the center of the 'open' magnetic field lines which connect to the interplanetary magnetic field and provide a direct route for the solar wind to reach the ionosphere.
