  2. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    In 2009, a team of MIT physicists demonstrated that a lithium gas cooled to less than one kelvin can exhibit ferromagnetism. [12] The team cooled fermionic lithium-6 to less than 150 nK (150 billionths of one kelvin) using infrared laser cooling. This demonstration is the first time that ferromagnetism has been demonstrated in a gas.

  3. Saturation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_(magnetic)

    To prevent this, the level of signals applied to iron core inductors must be limited so they don't saturate. To lower its effects, an air gap is created in some kinds of transformer cores. [ 10 ] The saturation current , the current through the winding required to saturate the magnetic core, is given by manufacturers in the specifications for ...

  4. Ferrofluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferrofluid

    Ferrofluid is a liquid that is attracted to the poles of a magnet. It is a colloidal liquid made of nanoscale ferromagnetic or ferrimagnetic particles suspended in a carrier fluid (usually an organic solvent or water). [1] Each magnetic particle is thoroughly coated with a surfactant to inhibit clumping. Large ferromagnetic particles can be ...

  5. 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.

  6. Magnetic alloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_alloy

    A magnetic alloy is a combination of various metals from the periodic table such as ferrite that exhibits magnetic properties such as ferromagnetism.Typically the alloy contains one of the three main magnetic elements (which appear on the Bethe-Slater curve): iron (Fe), nickel (Ni), or cobalt (Co).

  7. Magnetic susceptibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_susceptibility

    Magnetic response M is dependent upon the orientation of the sample and can occur in directions other than that of the applied field H. In these cases, volume susceptibility is defined as a tensor : M i = H j χ i j {\displaystyle M_{i}=H_{j}\chi _{ij}} where i and j refer to the directions (e.g., of the x and y Cartesian coordinates ) of the ...

  8. Magnetostriction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostriction

    Magnetostriction is a property of magnetic materials that causes them to change their shape or dimensions during the process of magnetization.The variation of materials' magnetization due to the applied magnetic field changes the magnetostrictive strain until reaching its saturation value, λ.

  9. Ferroelectricity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferroelectricity

    In 1974 R.B. Meyer used symmetry arguments to predict ferroelectric liquid crystals, [25] and the prediction could immediately be verified by several observations of behavior connected to ferroelectricity in smectic liquid-crystal phases that are chiral and tilted. The technology allows the building of flat-screen monitors.
