  2. Coercivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coercivity

    Coercivity, also called the magnetic coercivity, coercive field or coercive force, is a measure of the ability of a ferromagnetic material to withstand an external magnetic field without becoming demagnetized. Coercivity is usually measured in oersted or ampere/meter units and is denoted H C.

  3. Magnetic hysteresis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_hysteresis

    The phenomenon of hysteresis in ferromagnetic materials is the result of two effects: rotation of magnetization and changes in size or number of magnetic domains.In general, the magnetization varies (in direction but not magnitude) across a magnet, but in sufficiently small magnets, it doesn't.

  4. Magnetic Thermodynamic Systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_Thermodynamic_Systems

    The total energy in the space occupied by the system includes a component arising from the energy of a magnetic field in a vacuum. This component equals U v a c u u m = B e 2 V 2 μ 0 {\displaystyle U_{vacuum}={\frac {B_{e}^{2}V}{2\mu _{0}}}} , where μ 0 {\displaystyle \mu _{0}} is the permeability of free space , and isn't included as a part ...

  5. Ferromagnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ferromagnetism

    Ferromagnetism is a property of certain materials (such as iron) that results in a significant, observable magnetic permeability, and in many cases, a significant magnetic coercivity, allowing the material to form a permanent magnet. Ferromagnetic materials are noticeably attracted to a magnet, which is a consequence of their substantial ...

  6. Stoner–Wohlfarth model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stoner–Wohlfarth_model

    At h = 0.5 the red curve appears, but for h > 0 the blue state has a lower energy because it is closer to the direction of the magnetic field. When the field becomes negative, the red state has the lower energy, but the magnetization cannot immediately jump to this new direction because there is an energy barrier in between (see the insets).

  7. Neodymium magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium_magnet

    Neodymium has a negative coefficient, meaning the coercivity along with the magnetic energy density (BH max) decreases as temperature increases. Neodymium-iron-boron magnets have high coercivity at room temperature, but as the temperature rises above 100 °C (212 °F), the coercivity decreases drastically until the Curie temperature (around 320 ...

  8. Magnetocrystalline anisotropy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetocrystalline_anisotropy

    In physics, a ferromagnetic material is said to have magnetocrystalline anisotropy if it takes more energy to magnetize it in certain directions than in others. These directions are usually related to the principal axes of its crystal lattice. It is a special case of magnetic anisotropy. In other words, the excess energy required to magnetize a ...

    Hysteresis loop Induction B as function of field strength H for H varying between H min and H max; for ferromagnetic material the B has different values for H going up and down, therefore a plot of the function forms a loop instead of a curve joining two points; for perminvar type materials, the loop is a "rectangle" (Domain Structure of Perminvar Having a Rectangular Hysteresis Loop, Williams ...
