  2. Jefimenko's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jefimenko's_equations

    Jefimenko says, "...neither Maxwell's equations nor their solutions indicate an existence of causal links between electric and magnetic fields. Therefore, we must conclude that an electromagnetic field is a dual entity always having an electric and a magnetic component simultaneously created by their common sources: time-variable electric ...

  3. Gauss (unit) - Wikipedia

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

    The gauss is the unit of magnetic flux density B in the system of Gaussian units and is equal to Mx/cm 2 or g/Bi/s 2, while the oersted is the unit of H-field. One tesla (T) corresponds to 10 4 gauss, and one ampere (A) per metre corresponds to 4π × 10 −3 oersted .

  4. Mathematical descriptions of the electromagnetic field

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    As such, they are often written as E(x, y, z, t) (electric field) and B(x, y, z, t) (magnetic field). If only the electric field (E) is non-zero, and is constant in time, the field is said to be an electrostatic field. Similarly, if only the magnetic field (B) is non-zero and is constant in time, the field is said to be a magnetostatic field.

  5. Magnetic particle inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_particle_inspection

    Depending on requirements, the orientation of the magnetic field may need to be changed 90 degrees to inspect for indications that cannot be detected from steps 3 to 5. The most common way to change magnetic field orientation is to use a "coil shot". In Fig 1 a 36-inch coil can be seen then steps 4, 5, and 6 are repeated.

  6. Maxwell's equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maxwell's_equations

    Gauss's law for magnetism: magnetic field lines never begin nor end but form loops or extend to infinity as shown here with the magnetic field due to a ring of current. Gauss's law for magnetism states that electric charges have no magnetic analogues, called magnetic monopoles; no north or south magnetic poles exist in isolation. [3]

  7. Gauss's law for magnetism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss's_law_for_magnetism

    If magnetic monopoles were to be discovered, then Gauss's law for magnetism would state the divergence of B would be proportional to the magnetic charge density ρ m, analogous to Gauss's law for electric field. For zero net magnetic charge density (ρ m = 0), the original form of Gauss's magnetism law is the result.

  8. Magnetostatics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetostatics

    Magnetostatics is the study of magnetic fields in systems where the currents are steady (not changing with time). It is the magnetic analogue of electrostatics , where the charges are stationary. The magnetization need not be static; the equations of magnetostatics can be used to predict fast magnetic switching events that occur on time scales ...

  9. Orders of magnitude (magnetic field) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude...

    This page lists examples of magnetic induction B in teslas and gauss produced by various sources, grouped by orders of magnitude.. The magnetic flux density does not measure how strong a magnetic field is, but only how strong the magnetic flux is in a given point or at a given distance (usually right above the magnet's surface).
