Description

When a material is placed within a magnetic field, the magnetic forces of the material's electrons will be affected.

This effect is known as Faraday's Law of Magnetic Induction.

However, materials can react quite differently to the presence of an external magnetic field.

This reaction is dependent on a number of factors, such as the atomic and molecular structure of the material, and the net magnetic field associated with the atoms.

The magnetic moments associated with atoms have three origins.

These are the electron orbital motion, the change in orbital motion caused by an external magnetic field, and the spin of the electrons.In most atoms, electrons occur in pairs.

Electrons in a pair spin in opposite directions. So, when electrons are paired together, their opposite spins cause their magnetic fields to cancel each other.

Therefore, no net magnetic field exists. Alternately, materials with some unpaired electrons will have a net magnetic field and will react more to an external field.

Most materials can be classified as diamagnetic, paramagnetic or ferromagnetic.This new book presents leading research from around the world.
