paramagnetism

IPA: pɛrʌmˈægnʌtɪzʌm

(physics) The tendency of magnetic dipoles to align with an external magnetic field; materials that exhibit this tendency become temporary magnets.

Examples of "paramagnetism" in Sentences

Pierre also discovered the effect of temperature on paramagnetism, which is now known as Curie's law.
Examples are the transition between liquid and gas and the transition between ferromagnetism and paramagnetism.
It was with similar methods that the paramagnetism of crystals deriving from the electronic spin was investigated by Gorter in
Assertion: The paramagnetism of Cu + ion is zero. magnetons where S is the total spin. both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A
Examples of the latter case is the transition between liquid and gas at the critical point, and from ferromagnetism to paramagnetism in metals such as iron, nickel and cobalt.
Néel has made many other contributions, such as investigations in the theory of magnetic domains and the discovery of the effect found in small particles, called super-paramagnetism.
In his well known theory of magnetism P. Langevin, in 1905, took into account the Curie law and arrived again, theoretically, at the difference between the origins of diamagnetism and paramagnetism.
