  2. Curie's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_law

    [1]: 117 The formula above is known as the Langevin paramagnetic equation. Pierre Curie found an approximation to this law that applies to the relatively high temperatures and low magnetic fields used in his experiments. As temperature increases and magnetic field decreases, the argument of the hyperbolic tangent decreases.

  3. Plasma beta - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasma_beta

    The beta of a plasma, symbolized by β, is the ratio of the plasma pressure (p = n k B T) to the magnetic pressure (p mag = B 2 /2μ 0).The term is commonly used in studies of the Sun and Earth's magnetic field, and in the field of fusion power designs.

  4. Magnetic diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_diffusion

    For the limit , the magnetic diffusion equation = is just a vector-valued form of the heat equation. For a localized initial magnetic field (e.g. Gaussian distribution) within a conducting material, the maxima and minima will asymptotically decay to a value consistent with Laplace's equation for the given boundary conditions.

  5. Bohm diffusion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bohm_diffusion

    This predicted that the rate of diffusion was linear with temperature and inversely linear with the strength of the confining magnetic field. The rate predicted by Bohm diffusion is much higher than the rate predicted by classical diffusion, which develops from a random walk within the plasma. The classical model scaled inversely with the ...

    is the Boltzmann constant and the temperature. Note that in the SI system of units B {\displaystyle B} given in Tesla stands for the magnetic field , B = μ 0 H {\displaystyle B=\mu _{0}H} , where H {\displaystyle H} is the auxiliary magnetic field given in A/m and μ 0 {\displaystyle \mu _{0}} is the permeability of vacuum .

  7. Birkeland current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkeland_current

    Schematic of the Birkeland or Field-Aligned Currents and the ionospheric current systems they connect to, Pedersen and Hall currents. [1]A Birkeland current (also known as field-aligned current, FAC) is a set of electrical currents that flow along geomagnetic field lines connecting the Earth's magnetosphere to the Earth's high latitude ionosphere.

  8. 2024 polls were accurate but still underestimated Trump

    This is not great news for pollsters. It means they did not fully solve their problems from 2016 and 2020 of getting enough Trump supporters to take their polls .

  9. Plasmasphere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plasmasphere

    The plasmasphere, or inner magnetosphere, is a region of the Earth's magnetosphere consisting of low-energy (cool) plasma. It is located above the ionosphere . The outer boundary of the plasmasphere is known as the plasmapause , which is defined by an order of magnitude drop in plasma density.
