The greater forces exerted by rare-earth magnets create hazards that may not occur with other types of magnet. Neodymium magnets larger than a few cubic centimeters are strong enough to cause injuries to body parts pinched between two magnets, or a magnet and a ferrous metal surface, even causing broken bones.

Flux distribution for a flat refrigerator magnet Schematic diagram of a free-electron laser. Scaling up this design and adding a top sheet gives a wiggler magnet, used in synchrotrons and free-electron lasers. Wiggler magnets wiggle, or oscillate, an electron beam perpendicular to the magnetic field.
Neodymium magnet on a mu-metal bracket from a hard drive. Neodymium magnets (an alloy, Nd 2 Fe 14 B) are the strongest permanent magnets known. A neodymium magnet of a few tens of grams can lift a thousand times its own weight, and can snap together with enough force to break bones.
Magnetic induction B (also known as magnetic flux density) has the SI unit tesla [T or Wb/m 2]. [1] One tesla is equal to 10 4 gauss. Magnetic field drops off as the inverse cube of the distance ( 1 / distance 3 ) from a dipole source. Energy required to produce laboratory magnetic fields increases with the square of magnetic field. [2]
Magnetic alloys have become common, especially in the form of steel (iron and carbon), alnico (iron, nickel, cobalt, and aluminum), and permalloy (iron and nickel). So-called "neodymium magnets" are alloys of neodymium, iron and boron forming the crystal structure Nd 2 Fe 14 B.
The article mentions toys containing neodymium magnets the size and shape of aspirin tablets. Can someone please replace this with a proper measurement? Even the original Bayer Aspirin is available in different shapes and sizes, let alone all the different stuff called "Aspirin" which is available in the USA. --BjKa 13:52, 8 November 2006 (UTC)
