  2. Helmholtz coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmholtz_coil

    Magnetic field induction along the axis crossing the center of coils; z = 0 is the point in the middle of the distance between coils Contours showing the magnitude of the magnetic field near a coil pair, with one coil at top and the other at bottom.

  3. Electromagnetic coil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_coil

    The advantage of using the coil shape is that it increases the strength of the magnetic field produced by a given current. The magnetic fields generated by the separate turns of wire all pass through the center of the coil and add to produce a strong field there. [3] The greater the number of turns of wire, the stronger the field produced.

  4. Electromagnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnet

    The magnetic field lines of a current-carrying loop of wire pass through the center of the loop, concentrating the field there The magnetic field generated by passing a current through a coil. An electric current flowing in a wire creates a magnetic field around the wire, due to Ampere's law (see drawing of wire with magnetic field).

  5. Magnetic circuit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_circuit

    Magnetic field (green) induced by a current-carrying wire winding (red) in a magnetic circuit consisting of an iron core C forming a closed loop with two air gaps G in it. In an analogy to an electric circuit, the winding acts analogously to an electric battery, providing the magnetizing field , the core pieces act like wires, and the gaps G act like resistors.

  6. Electromagnetic induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_induction

    The magnetic field lines are indicated, with their direction shown by arrows. The magnetic flux corresponds to the 'density of field lines'. The magnetic flux is thus densest in the middle of the solenoid, and weakest outside of it. Faraday's law of induction makes use of the magnetic flux Φ B through a region of space enclosed by a wire loop.

  7. Magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_field

    Additional magnetic field values can be found through the magnetic field of a finite beam, for example, that the magnetic field of an arc of angle and radius at the center is =, or that the magnetic field at the center of a N-sided regular polygon of side is = ⁡ ⁡, both outside of the plane with proper directions as inferred by right hand ...

  8. Ampère's circuital law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampère's_circuital_law

    The original form of Maxwell's circuital law, which he derived as early as 1855 in his paper "On Faraday's Lines of Force" [9] based on an analogy to hydrodynamics, relates magnetic fields to electric currents that produce them. It determines the magnetic field associated with a given current, or the current associated with a given magnetic field.

  9. Coronal loop - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_loop

    A coronal loop occurs when a curved arc of the magnetic field projects through the visible surface of the Sun, the photosphere, protruding into the solar atmosphere. Within a coronal loop, the paths of the moving electrically charged particles which make up its plasma— electrons and ions —are sharply bent by the Lorentz force when moving ...
