Magnetic nanoparticles — are a class of nanoparticle which can be manipulated using magnetic field. Such particles commonly consist of magnetic elements such as iron, nickel and cobalt and their chemical compounds. While nanoparticles are smaller than 1 micrometer in… … Wikipedia
Magnetic field — This article is about a scientific description of the magnetic influence of an electric current or magnetic material. For the physics of magnetic materials, see magnetism. For information about objects that create magnetic fields, see magnet. For … Wikipedia
Magnetic domain — Several grains of NdFeB with magnetic domains made visible via contrast with a Kerr microscope. A magnetic domain describes a region within a magnetic material which has uniform magnetization. This means that the individual magnetic moments of… … Wikipedia
Magnetic shark repellent — Magnetic shark repellents utilize permanent magnets, which exploit the sensitivity of the Ampullae of Lorenzini in sharks and rays (electrosense). This organ is not found on bony fishes (teleosts), therefore, this type of shark repellent is… … Wikipedia
Magnetic reconnection — is a physical process in highly conducting plasmas in which the magnetic topology is rearranged and magnetic energy is converted to kinetic energy, thermal energy, and particle acceleration. Magnetic reconnection occurs on timescales intermediate … Wikipedia
Magnetic inductance — Magnetic Circuits Conventional Magnetic Circuits Magnetomotive force Magnetic flux Φ Magnetic reluctance Phasor Magnetic Circuits Complex reluctance Zμ … Wikipedia
Magnetic circular dichroism — (MCD) is the differential absorption of left and right circularly polarized (LCP and RCP) light, induced in a sample by a strong magnetic field oriented parallel to the direction of light propagation. MCD measurements can detect transitions which … Wikipedia
Behavior — Be*hav ior, n. Manner of behaving, whether good or bad; mode of conducting one s self; conduct; deportment; carriage; used also of inanimate objects; as, the behavior of a ship in a storm; the behavior of the magnetic needle.

Magnetic shape-memory alloy — Magnetic shape memory alloys (MSMAs), or ferromagnetic shape memory alloys (FSMAs), are ferromagnetic materials which exhibit large strains under the influence of an applied magnetic field due to martensitic phase transformation. Magnetic shape… … Wikipedia
Magnetic confinement fusion — TCV inner view, with graphite clad torus Magnetic confinement fusion is an approach to generating fusion power that uses magnetic fields to confine the hot fusion fuel in the form of a plasma. Magnetic confinement is one of two major branches of… … Wikipedia
Magnetic monopole — It is impossible to make magnetic monopoles from a bar magnet. If a bar magnet is cut in half, it is not the case that one half has the north pole and the other half has the south pole. Inst … Wikipedia
