diamagnetic effect
1diamagnetic — Attraction At*trac tion, n. [L. attractio: cf. F. attraction.] 1. (Physics) An invisible power in a body by which it draws anything to itself; the power in nature acting mutually between bodies or ultimate particles, tending to draw them together …
2Faraday effect — In physics, the Faraday effect or Faraday rotation is a magneto optical phenomenon, or an interaction between light and a magnetic field in a dielectric material. The rotation of the plane of polarization is proportional to the intensity of the… …

5Magnetic levitation — This article is about magnetic levitation. For trains based on this effect, see Maglev. For the Ruby interpreter, see MagLev (Ruby interpreter). Levitating pyrolytic carbon Magnetic levitation, maglev, or magnetic suspension is a method by which… …
6Diamagnetism — Levitating pyrolytic carbon Diamagnetism is the property of an object which causes it to create a magnetic field in opposition to an externally applied magnetic field, thus causing a repulsive effect. Specifically, an external magnetic field… …
