  2. Curie temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_temperature

    Permanent magnetism is caused by the alignment of magnetic moments, and induced magnetism is created when disordered magnetic moments are forced to align in an applied magnetic field. For example, the ordered magnetic moments ( ferromagnetic , Figure 1) change and become disordered ( paramagnetic , Figure 2) at the Curie temperature.

    The coolest of these, 2MASS J10475385+2124234 with a temperature of 800-900 K, retains a magnetic field stronger than 1.7 kG, making it some 3000 times stronger than the Earth's magnetic field. [18] Radio observations also suggest that their magnetic fields periodically change their orientation, similar to the Sun during the solar cycle .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sun

    The coolest layer of the Sun is a temperature minimum region extending to about 500 km above the photosphere, and has a temperature of about 4,100 K. [77] This part of the Sun is cool enough to allow for the existence of simple molecules such as carbon monoxide and water. [ 81 ]

  5. Coronal hole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coronal_hole

    A coronal hole at the Sun's north pole observed in soft X-ray. Coronal hole size and population correspond with the solar cycle. As the Sun heads toward solar maximum, the coronal holes move closer and closer to the Sun's poles. [4] During solar maxima, the number of coronal holes decreases until the magnetic fields on the Sun reverse.

    [20] [21] In 2019, the strength of the surface magnetic fields of 4 hot Jupiters were estimated and ranged between 20 and 120 gauss compared to Jupiter's surface magnetic field of 4.3 gauss. [ 22 ] [ 23 ] In 2020, a radio emission in the 14-30 MHz band was detected from the Tau Boötis system, likely associated with cyclotron radiation from the ...

  7. Magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization

    In classical electromagnetism, magnetization is the vector field that expresses the density of permanent or induced magnetic dipole moments in a magnetic material. Accordingly, physicists and engineers usually define magnetization as the quantity of magnetic moment per unit volume. [1] It is represented by a pseudovector M.

    Exposure to heat can cause the card to become malformed, which could damage the magnetic strip. This type of damage can be caused by leaving your card sitting out in the sun or in a hot car for ...

  9. Earth's magnetic field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earth's_magnetic_field

    A dynamo can amplify a magnetic field, but it needs a "seed" field to get it started. [59] For the Earth, this could have been an external magnetic field. Early in its history the Sun went through a T-Tauri phase in which the solar wind would have had a magnetic field orders of magnitude larger than the present solar wind. [60]
