  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. 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.

  4. Force-free magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-free_magnetic_field

    The magnetic field in the Sun's corona is often approximated as a force-free field.. In plasma physics, a force-free magnetic field is a magnetic field in which the Lorentz force is equal to zero and the magnetic pressure greatly exceeds the plasma pressure such that non-magnetic forces can be neglected.

  5. List of electromagnetism equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_electromagnetism...

    Continuous charge distribution. The volume charge density ρ is the amount of charge per unit volume (cube), surface charge density σ is amount per unit surface area (circle) with outward unit normal nĚ‚, d is the dipole moment between two point charges, the volume density of these is the polarization density P.

  6. London equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_equations

    There are two London equations when expressed in terms of measurable fields: =, =. Here is the (superconducting) current density, E and B are respectively the electric and magnetic fields within the superconductor, is the charge of an electron or proton, is electron mass, and is a phenomenological constant loosely associated with a number density of superconducting carriers.

  7. Curie–Weiss law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie–Weiss_law

    This threshold temperature below which a material is ferromagnetic is called the Curie temperature and is different for each material. The Curie–Weiss law describes the changes in a material's magnetic susceptibility, , near its Curie temperature. The magnetic susceptibility is the ratio between the material's magnetization and the applied ...

  8. Curie temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_temperature

    In physics and materials science, the Curie temperature (T C), or Curie point, is the temperature above which certain materials lose their permanent magnetic properties, which can (in most cases) be replaced by induced magnetism. The Curie temperature is named after Pierre Curie, who showed that magnetism is lost at a critical temperature. [1]

  9. Dynamo theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dynamo_theory

    A transport equation, usually of heat (sometimes of light element concentration): = + where T is temperature, = / is the thermal diffusivity with k thermal conductivity, heat capacity, and density, and is an optional heat source. Often the pressure is the dynamic pressure, with the hydrostatic pressure and centripetal potential removed.
