  2. Lodestone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lodestone

    Ordinary magnetite is attracted to a magnetic field as iron and steel are, but does not tend to become magnetized itself; it has too low a magnetic coercivity. (resistance to magnetization or demagnetization) [ 9 ] Microscopic examination of lodestones has found them to be made of magnetite (Fe 3 O 4 ) with inclusions of maghemite (cubic Fe 2 O ...

  3. Magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnet

    A magnet is a material or object that produces a magnetic field.This magnetic field is invisible but is responsible for the most notable property of a magnet: a force that pulls on other ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, steel, nickel, cobalt, etc. and attracts or repels other magnets.

  4. Natural remanent magnetization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_remanent_magnetization

    Natural remanent magnetization is the permanent magnetism of a rock or sediment. This preserves a record of the Earth's magnetic field at the time the mineral was laid down as sediment or crystallized in magma and also the tectonic movement of the rock over millions of years from its original position.

  5. Magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetism

    Magnetism is the class of physical attributes that occur through a magnetic field, which allows objects to attract or repel each other.Because both electric currents and magnetic moments of elementary particles give rise to a magnetic field, magnetism is one of two aspects of electromagnetism.

  6. Nanomagnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanomagnet

    Canonical examples of nanomagnets are grains [1] [2] of ferromagnetic metals (iron, cobalt, and nickel) and single-molecule magnets. [3] The vast majority of nanomagnets feature transition metal ( titanium , vanadium , chromium , manganese , iron, cobalt or nickel) or rare earth ( Gadolinium , Europium , Erbium ) magnetic atoms.

  7. Rare-earth magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rare-earth_magnet

    Ferrofluid on glass, with a rare-earth magnet underneath. A rare-earth magnet is a strong permanent magnet made from alloys of rare-earth elements.Developed in the 1970s and 1980s, rare-earth magnets are the strongest type of permanent magnets made, producing significantly stronger magnetic fields than other types such as ferrite or alnico magnets.

    Doctors worry especially about children’s ingesting more than one magnet, because two can strongly attract and pinch body tissue. That, in turn, can cause internal bleeding, twisting or ...

  9. Neodymium magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium_magnet

    Neodymium magnets have replaced alnico and ferrite magnets in many of the myriad applications in modern technology where strong permanent magnets are required, because their greater strength allows the use of smaller, lighter magnets for a given application. Some examples are: Head actuators for computer hard disks
