  2. Curie's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_law

    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. As the derivations below show, the magnetization saturates in the opposite limit of low temperatures and strong fields. If the Curie constant is null, other magnetic effects dominate ...

    This is known as the Curie law and the proportionality constant, C, is known as the Curie constant, whose value, for molar susceptibility, is calculated as [11] = (+) where N is the Avogadro constant, g is the Landé g-factor, and μ B is the Bohr magneton.

  5. Speed of light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speed_of_Light

    The particular value chosen for the speed of light provided a more accurate definition of the metre that still agreed as much as possible with the definition used before 1983. [12] [14] As a dimensional physical constant, the numerical value of c is different for different unit systems.

  6. Curie temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_temperature

    The Curie–Weiss law is a simple model derived from a mean-field approximation, this means it works well for the materials temperature, T, much greater than their corresponding Curie temperature, T C, i.e. T ≫ T C; it however fails to describe the magnetic susceptibility, χ, in the immediate vicinity of the Curie point because of ...

  7. Fine-structure constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fine-structure_constant

    The optical conductivity of graphene for visible frequencies is theoretically given by ⁠ π / 4 ⁠ G 0, and as a result its light absorption and transmission properties can be expressed in terms of the fine-structure constant alone. [19] The absorption value for normal-incident light on graphene in vacuum would then be given by ⁠ πα / (1 ...

  8. Physical constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_constant

    A physical constant, sometimes fundamental physical constant or universal constant, is a physical quantity that cannot be explained by a theory and therefore must be measured experimentally. It is distinct from a mathematical constant , which has a fixed numerical value, but does not directly involve any physical measurement.

    Here μ 0 is the permeability of free space; M the magnetization (magnetic moment per unit volume), B = μ 0 H is the magnetic field, and C the material-specific Curie constant: = (+), where k B is the Boltzmann constant, N the number of magnetic atoms (or molecules) per unit volume, g the Landé g-factor, μ B the Bohr magneton, J the angular ...
