  2. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    A magnetic field (sometimes called B-field [1]) is a physical field that describes the magnetic influence on moving electric charges, electric currents, [2]: ch1 [3] and magnetic materials. A moving charge in a magnetic field experiences a force perpendicular to its own velocity and to the magnetic field.

  3. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, steel, nickel, cobalt, etc. and attracts or repels other magnets.

  4. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    A magnetic field contains energy, and physical systems move toward configurations with lower energy. When diamagnetic material is placed in a magnetic field, a magnetic dipole tends to align itself in opposed polarity to that field, thereby lowering the net field strength. When ferromagnetic material is placed within a magnetic field, the ...

  5. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    Within each domain, the spins are aligned, but if the bulk material is in its lowest energy configuration (i.e. "unmagnetized"), the spins of separate domains point in different directions and their magnetic fields cancel out, so the bulk material has no net large-scale magnetic field. Ferromagnetic materials spontaneously divide into magnetic ...

  6. Eddy current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddy_current

    The magnetic field (B, green arrow) of the magnet's North pole N is directed down in the −y direction. The magnetic field exerts a Lorentz force on the electron (pink arrow) of F 1 = −e(v × B), where e is the electron's charge. Since the electron has a negative charge, from the right hand rule this is directed in the +z direction.

  7. List of superconductors - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_superconductors

    X:Y means material X doped with element Y, T C is the highest reported transition temperature in kelvins and H C is a critical magnetic field in tesla. "BCS" means whether or not the superconductivity is explained within the BCS theory .

  8. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    Paramagnetic materials have a weak induced magnetization in a magnetic field, which disappears when the magnetic field is removed. Ferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic materials have strong magnetization in a magnetic field, and can be magnetized to have magnetization in the absence of an external field, becoming a permanent magnet .

  9. Ferrite (magnet) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrite_(magnet)

    The maximum magnetic field B is about 0.35 tesla and the magnetic field strength H is about 30–160 kiloampere turns per meter (400–2000 oersteds). [33] The density of ferrite magnets is about 5 g/cm 3. The most common hard ferrites are: Strontium ferrite Sr Fe 12 O 19 (Sr O · 6 Fe 2 O
