  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 ...

  3. Magnetochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetochemistry

    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.

  4. Curie's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie's_principle

    Curie's principle, or Curie's symmetry principle, is a maxim about cause and effect formulated by Pierre Curie in 1894: [1] the symmetries of the causes are to be found in the effects. [2] [3] [4] The idea was based on the ideas of Franz Ernst Neumann and Bernhard Minnigerode. Thus, it is sometimes known as the Neuman–Minnigerode–Curie ...

  5. Curie (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie_(unit)

    The curie (symbol Ci) is a non-SI unit of radioactivity originally defined in 1910. According to a notice in Nature at the time, it was to be named in honour of Pierre Curie , [ 1 ] but was considered at least by some to be in honour of Marie Curie as well, [ 2 ] and is in later literature considered to be named for both.

  6. Curie–Weiss law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curie–Weiss_law

    where C is a material-specific Curie constant, T is the absolute temperature, and T C is the Curie temperature, both measured in kelvin. The law predicts a singularity in the susceptibility at T = T C. Below this temperature, the ferromagnet has a spontaneous magnetization. The name is given after Pierre Curie and Pierre Weiss.

  7. Postulates of special relativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postulates_of_special...

    1. First postulate (principle of relativity) The laws of physics take the same form in all inertial frames of reference.. 2. Second postulate (invariance of c) . As measured in any inertial frame of reference, light is always propagated in empty space with a definite velocity c that is independent of the state of motion of the emitting body.

  8. Brillouin and Langevin functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_and_Langevin...

    When Langevin published the theory paramagnetism in 1905 [12] [13] it was before the adoption of quantum physics. Meaning that Langevin only used concepts of classical physics. [17] Niels Bohr showed in his thesis that classical statistical mechanics can not be used to explain paramagnetism, and that quantum theory has to be used. [17]

  9. Value theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_theory

    Value theory is the study of values.Also called axiology, it examines the nature, sources, and types of values.It is a branch of philosophy and an interdisciplinary field closely associated with social sciences like economics, sociology, anthropology, and psychology.
