paramagnetism

Science; General science

A property exhibited by substances which, when placed in a magnetic field, are magnetized parallel to the field to an extent proportional to the field (except at very low ...

reluctance

Science; General science

A property of a magnetic circuit analogous to resistance in an electric circuit.

sensitivity (engineering)

Science; General science

A property of a system, or part of a system, that indicates how the system reacts to stimuli. The stimuli can be external (that is, an input signal) or a change in an element in ...

pigmentation

Science; General science

A property of biological materials that imparts coloration. Hence, pigmentation determines the quantity and quality of reflected visible light. The characteristics of light ...

helimagnetism

Science; General science

A property possessed by some metals, alloys, and salts of transition elements in which the atomic magnetic moments, at sufficiently low temperatures, are arranged in a spiral or ...

antiferromagnetism

Science; General science

A property possessed by some metals, alloys, and salts of transition elements in which the atomic magnetic moments, at sufficiently low temperatures, form an ordered array which ...

superstring theory

Science; General science

A proposal for a unified theory of all interactions, including gravity. At present, the strong, weak, and electromagnetic interactions are accounted for within the framework of ...
