    USS Jimmy Carter in the magnetic silencing facility at Naval Base Kitsap for her first deperming treatment RMS Queen Mary arriving in New York Harbor, 20 June 1945, with thousands of U.S. soldiers – note the prominent degaussing coil running around the hull Control panel of the MES-device ("Magnetischer Eigenschutz" German: magnetic self-protection) in a German submarine Close-wrap deperming ...

  3. Demagnetizing field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demagnetizing_field

    The demagnetizing field, also called the stray field (outside the magnet), is the magnetic field (H-field) [1] generated by the magnetization in a magnet.The total magnetic field in a region containing magnets is the sum of the demagnetizing fields of the magnets and the magnetic field due to any free currents or displacement currents.

  4. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    Demagnetization is the reduction or elimination of magnetization. [7] ... magnetic fields can interfere with electronic devices such as cell phones or computers, and ...

  5. Magnetic refrigeration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_refrigeration

    The magnetic field is held constant to prevent the dipoles from reabsorbing the heat. Once sufficiently cooled, the magnetocaloric substance and the coolant are separated (H=0). Adiabatic demagnetization: The substance is returned to another adiabatic (insulated) condition so the total entropy remains constant. However, this time the magnetic ...

    Scratches and general wear are common causes of demagnetization, but prolonged exposure to magnets can also ruin a card’s magnetic strip. Fortunately, you don’t need to worry about magnetic ...

  7. Cassette demagnetizer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cassette_demagnetizer

    A cassette demagnetizer is a device that removes the magnetic field that accumulates during the use of audio cassettes in cassette decks. [1] [2] The passage of magnetically charged tape over the metallic parts of the tape deck imparts a magnetic polarity that can reduce fidelity in recording and playback.

  8. Barkhausen effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barkhausen_effect

    The Wiegand effect is a macroscopic extension of the Barkhausen effect, [2] as the special treatment of the Wiegand wire causes the wire to act macroscopically as a single large magnetic domain. The numerous small high-coercivity domains in the Wiegand wire outer shell switch in an avalanche, generating the Wiegand effect's rapid magnetic field ...

  9. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet's magnetic moment (also called magnetic dipole moment and usually denoted μ) is a vector that characterizes the magnet's overall magnetic properties. For a bar magnet, the direction of the magnetic moment points from the magnet's south pole to its north pole, [ 15 ] and the magnitude relates to how strong and how far apart these poles ...
