gauss meter
Materials science; Magnetics
An instrument used to measure the instantaneous intensity value of magnetic induction, B, usually measured in Gauss (C.G.S.).
gradient
Materials science; Magnetics
Indicates the change in magnetic strength between points measured at different distances perpendicular to the magnetic field.
hysteresis loop
Materials science; Magnetics
A plot of magnetizing force versus resultant magnetization (also called a B/H curve) of the material as it is successively magnetized to saturation, demagnetized, magnetized in ...
induction (B)
Materials science; Magnetics
The magnetic flux per unit area of a section normal to the direction of flux. Measured in Gauss, in the C.G.S. system of units.
intrinsic coercive force
Materials science; Magnetics
Intrinsic coercive force indicates a materials' resistance to demagnetization. It is equal to the demagnetizing force which reduces the intrinsic induction, Bi, in the material to ...
intrinsic coercive force (Hci)
Materials science; Magnetics
Measurement of magnetic materials inherent ability to resist self demagnetization.
