  2. Halbach array - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halbach_array

    This magnetic orientation process replicates that applied by a magnetic recording tape head to the magnetic tape coating during the recording process. The principle was further described by James (Jim) M. Winey of Magnepan in 1970, for the ideal case of continuously rotating magnetization, induced by a one-sided stripe-shaped coil.

  3. Magnetic stirrer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_stirrer

    A magnetic stirrer or magnetic mixer is a laboratory device that employs a rotating magnetic field to cause a stir bar (or flea) immersed in a liquid to spin very quickly, thus stirring it. The rotating field may be created either by a rotating magnet or a set of stationary electromagnets, placed beneath the vessel with the liquid.

  4. Magnetic mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_mirror

    This image shows how a charged particle will corkscrew along the magnetic fields inside a magnetic bottle, which is two magnetic mirrors placed close together. The particle can be reflected from the dense field region and will be trapped. A magnetic bottle is two magnetic mirrors placed close together. For example, two parallel coils separated ...

  5. Force between magnets - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force_between_magnets

    More precisely, the term magnetic moment normally refers to a system's magnetic dipole moment, which produces the first term in the multipole expansion [note 1] of a general magnetic field. Both the torque and force exerted on a magnet by an external magnetic field are proportional to that magnet's magnetic moment.

  6. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    Paramagnetic materials are attracted to magnetic fields, hence have a relative magnetic permeability greater than one (or, equivalently, a positive magnetic susceptibility). The magnetic moment induced by the applied field is linear in the field strength, and it is rather weak. It typically requires a sensitive analytical balance to detect the ...

  7. Magnetic separation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_separation

    Recycling centres use magnetic separation often to separate components from recycling, isolate metals, and purify ores. [1] Overhead magnets, magnetic pulleys, and the magnetic drums were the methods used in the recycling industry. [1] Magnetic separation is also useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet. [3]

  8. Saturation (magnetic) - Wikipedia

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

    Seen in some magnetic materials, saturation is the state reached when an increase in applied external magnetic field H cannot increase the magnetization of the material further, so the total magnetic flux density B more or less levels off. (Though, magnetization continues to increase very slowly with the field due to paramagnetism.)

  9. Magnetic tension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_tension

    has magnitude equal to the curvature, or the reciprocal of the radius of curvature, and is directed from a point on a magnetic field line to the center of curvature. Therefore, as the curvature of the magnetic field line increases, so too does the magnetic tension force resisting this curvature. [2] [1]
