Magnetics

Oersted

Materials science; Magnetics

The unit of magnetic intensity in the cgs ( centimeter-gram-second ) system that describes magnetic force.

Maxwell

Materials science; Magnetics

The C.G.S. unit for total magnetic flux, measured in flux lines per square centimeter.

Orientation

Materials science; Magnetics

Used to describe the direction of magnetization of a material.

Surface gauss

Materials science; Magnetics

The magnetic field strength at the surface of the magnet as measured by a Gauss meter. A comprehensive table of the surface field for all of our stock magnets is available here: Surface Field ...

Residual induction

Materials science; Magnetics

It is the magnetic induction remaining in a saturated magnetic material after the magnetising field has been removed. This is the point at which the hysteresis loop crosses the B axis at zero ...

Stabilisation

Materials science; Magnetics

The process of exposing a magnet or a magnetic assembly to elevated temperatures or external magnetic fields to demagnetize it to a predetermined level. Once done the magnet will suffer no future ...
