dipole moment per unit volume
1ampere per meter — (A/m) or ampere turn per meter the SI unit of magnetic field strength. One ampere per meter is equal to pi/250 oersteds (12.566 371 millioersteds) in CGS units. The ampere per meter is also the SI unit of magnetization in the sense of magnetic …
2Magnetic 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 …

5Clausius–Mossotti relation — The Clausius–Mossotti relation is named after the Italian physicist Ottaviano Fabrizio Mossotti, whose 1850 book[1] analyzed the relationship between the dielectric constants of two different media, and the German physicist Rudolf Clausius, who… …
6Magnetochemistry — is concerned with the magnetic properties of chemical compounds. Magnetic properties arise from the spin and orbital angular momentum of the electrons contained in a compound. Compounds are diamagnetic when they contain no unpaired electrons.… …
7Polarization density — In classical electromagnetism, the polarization density (or electric polarization, or simply polarization) is the vector field that expresses the density of permanent or induced electric dipole moments in a dielectric material. The polarization… …
8Pyroelectric crystal — Pyroelectric crystals are crystals that generate electricity when heated. It is similar to piezoelectricity.Crystal symmetryCrystal structures can be divided into 32 classes, or point groups, according to the number of rotational axes and… …
9Magnetic susceptibility — In electromagnetism, the magnetic susceptibility χm (latin: susceptibilis “receptiveness”) is a dimensionless proportionality constant that indicates the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field. A related… …
10gauss — (G or Gs) 1. the CGS unit of magnetic flux density. A field of one gauss exerts, on a current carrying conductor placed in the field, a force of 0.1 dyne per ampere of current per centimeter of conductor. One gauss represents a magnetic flux… …
