  2. Curie's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_law

    H {\displaystyle H} is the magnitude of the applied magnetic field (A/m), T {\displaystyle T} is absolute temperature (K), C {\displaystyle C} is a material-specific Curie constant (K). Pierre Curie discovered this relation, now known as Curie's law, by fitting data from experiment. It only holds for high temperatures and weak magnetic fields.

  3. Thermodynamic databases for pure substances - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermodynamic_databases...

    Thermodynamic data is usually presented as a table or chart of function values for one mole of a substance (or in the case of the steam tables, one kg). A thermodynamic datafile is a set of equation parameters from which the numerical data values can be calculated. Tables and datafiles are usually presented at a standard pressure of 1 bar or 1 ...

  4. Curie temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_temperature

    Above the Curie temperature, the atoms are excited, and the spin orientations become randomized [8] but can be realigned by an applied field, i.e., the material becomes paramagnetic. Below the Curie temperature, the intrinsic structure has undergone a phase transition, [15] the atoms are ordered, and the material is ferromagnetic. [11]

  5. Brillouin and Langevin functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_and_Langevin...

    is the Boltzmann constant and the temperature. Note that in the SI system of units B {\displaystyle B} given in Tesla stands for the magnetic field , B = μ 0 H {\displaystyle B=\mu _{0}H} , where H {\displaystyle H} is the auxiliary magnetic field given in A/m and μ 0 {\displaystyle \mu _{0}} is the permeability of vacuum .

  6. Birkeland current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birkeland_current

    A Birkeland current (also known as field-aligned current, FAC) is a set of electrical currents that flow along geomagnetic field lines connecting the Earth's magnetosphere to the Earth's high latitude ionosphere. In the Earth's magnetosphere, the currents are driven by the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) and by bulk motions ...

  7. Magnetic reconnection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_reconnection

    Magnetic reconnection is a breakdown of "ideal-magnetohydrodynamics" and so of "Alfvén's theorem" (also called the "frozen-in flux theorem") which applies to large-scale regions of a highly-conducting magnetoplasma, for which the Magnetic Reynolds Number is very large: this makes the convective term in the induction equation dominate in such regions.

  8. Magnetic Thermodynamic Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_Thermodynamic_Systems

    t. e. In thermodynamics and thermal physics, the theoretical formulation of magnetic systems entails expressing the behavior of the systems using the Laws of Thermodynamics. Common magnetic systems examined through the lens of Thermodynamics are ferromagnets and paramagnets as well as the ferromagnet to paramagnet phase transition.

  9. Magnetic susceptibility - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_susceptibility

    Thus the volume magnetic susceptibility χ v and the magnetic permeability μ are related by the following formula: = (+). Sometimes [ 6 ] an auxiliary quantity called intensity of magnetization I (also referred to as magnetic polarisation J ) and with unit teslas , is defined as I = d e f μ 0 M . {\displaystyle \mathbf {I} {\stackrel {\mathrm ...
