1magnetism — /mag ni tiz euhm/, n. 1. the properties of attraction possessed by magnets; the molecular properties common to magnets. 2. the agency producing magnetic phenomena. 3. the science dealing with magnetic phenomena. 4. strong attractive power or… …
2Magnetization reversal — Magnetization reversal, or switching, represents the process that leads to a 180° reorientation of the magnetization vector with respect to its initial direction, from one stable orientation to the opposite one. Technologically, this is one of… …
3Geomagnetic reversal — Magnetic reversal redirects here. For switching of a magnet, see Magnetization reversal. Geomagnetic polarity during the late Cenozoic Era. Dark areas denote periods where the polarity matches today s polarity, light areas denote periods where… …
4Rock magnetism — is the study of the magnetic properties of rocks. Associated with paleomagnetism, the purpose of rock magnetism is to understand how magnetic properties of rocks affect the paleomagnetic data recorded by those rocks. Hysteresis, magnetic… …
5Magnetic detector — 1902 1918: Marconi s Wireless Magnetic Detector (London) The magnetic detector was one of the first practical devices able to make radio signals audible through a pair of headphones. It was not as sensitive as some detectors but despite that, it… …

7Magnetic 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 …
8Exchange Bias — Als Exchange Bias (EB) bezeichnet man eine unidirektionale Anisotropie (deshalb auch unidirectional exchange anisotropy genannt), die durch die Kopplung zwischen einem Ferro und einem Antiferromagneten entsteht. Der Exchange Bias bewirkt eine… …
