The device was the first of its kind to test the levitated dipole concept and was funded by the US Department of Energy. [1] The machine was also part of a collaboration between the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center and Columbia University , where another (non-levitated) dipole experiment, the Collisionless Terrella Experiment (CTX), was ...
A dipole is characterised by its dipole moment, a vector quantity shown in the figure as the blue arrow labeled M. It is the relationship between the electric field and the dipole moment that gives rise to the behaviour of the dielectric. (Note that the dipole moment points in the same direction as the electric field in the figure.
Inductance is the tendency of an electrical conductor to oppose a change in the electric current flowing through it. The electric current produces a magnetic field around the conductor. The magnetic field strength depends on the magnitude of the electric current, and therefore follows any changes in the magnitude of the current.
The rest is covered in proton-proton chain reaction; if there are specific questions you have or concepts you don't understand, ask them here. — Knowledge Seeker দ 03:47, 1 December 2005 (UTC) [ reply ]
Because the solutes are charged ions they also increase the electrical conductivity of the solution. [86] The increased ionic strength reduces the thickness of the electrical double layer around colloidal particles, and therefore the stability of emulsions and suspensions. [87] The chemical identity of the ions added is also important in many uses.
