Another common unit for magnetic field strength is the gauss (G) ; 1 G = 1 x 10 Magnetic field lines they represent the area around a magnet; magnetic field lines outside of the magnet flow from the north to the south pole Domain Atoms of ferromagnetic materials act in groups called domains; atomic magnets in each domain are aligned so that each domain is a microscopic bar magnet; the domains align themselves with an external magnetic field. Each domain behaves like a tiny magnet and has a north and a south pole. In unmagnetized materials, the domains are randomly arranged. In magnetized materials, the domains are aligned. Anything that randomizes the alignment of the domains destroys the magnetic properties of a material (dropping a magnet or heating it)

Extractions: The lower solar photosphere provides the optimal location for measuring vector magnetic fields using the Zeeman effect, and for detecting the Doppler velocity and intensity fluctuations which characterize the five-minute solar oscillations (p-modes). Although they are detected at the photosphere, the five-minute oscillations propagate throughout the solar interior. A careful analysis of their amplitudes and phases permits one to make inferences about the sub-surface structure of emerging, or fully emerged, active region complexes. Local helioseismology refers to a broad range of research activities, which are motivated by the problem of determining how the sub-surface velocity and magnetic fields are encoded in the amplitudes and phases of the p-modes. An important component of these efforts is the forward modeling of p- mode-sunspot interactions. Graham Barnes and NCAR Affiliate Scientist Paul Cally (both, Monash University, Melbourne, Australia) have spent the last year analyzing some of their numerical simulations of the interaction of a single p-mode with a solar surface magnetic flux concentration. The essential features of their numerical modeling are depicted in Figure 4. They find that the sunspot is very effective in converting a fraction of the incident p-mode into magnetic field-guided slow magnetoatmospheric waves, and in transmitting/scattering back into the quiet Sun different p-modes which share a common frequency with the driving p-mode. The latter process is referred to as "mode-mixing," while the former is in large part thought to be responsible for the ubiquitous absorption of p-modes by sunspots.

Why won't my perpetual motion machine work? What is a magnetic field? What are magnetic field lines? Magnetic fields are historically described in terms of their effect on electric charges. A moving electric charge, such as an electron, will accelerate in the presence of a magnetic field, causing it to change velocity and its direction of travel. This is, for example, the principle used in televisions, computer monitors, and other devices with CRTs ( cathode-ray tubes ). In a CRT, electrons are emitted from a hot filament. A voltage difference pulls these electrons from the filament to the picture screen. Electromagnets surrounding the tube cause these electrons to change direction, so they hit different locations on the screen. This is how it works: An electrically charged particle moving in a magnetic field will experience a force (known as the Lorentz force ) pushing it in a direction perpendicular to the magnetic field and the direction of motion: As a result of this force, the charged particle accelerates in the direction of the force (this is Newton's second law). In the diagram above the particle's trajectory will curve upward.

The history of the universe is usually described in terms of the distribution of matter: first primordial knots, then clouds, galaxies, stars, and clusters. A parallel, and perhaps not unrelated, saga can be written for magnetic fields. Basically, Philipp Kronberg (416-978-4971) of the University of Toronto finds magnetic fields every place he has looked in the cosmos: within the Milky Way (where the fields are typically about 5 microgauss), in intergalactic areas within galaxy clusters (1-2 microgauss for the Coma cluster, 350 million light years away), and even outside clusters. The latter observations are brand new and were reported by Kronberg at the APS meeting ( http://www.aps.org/meet/APR00/baps/vpr/layb7-02.html

http://www.factmonster.com/ce6/sci/A0859426.html

Extractions: Encyclopedia magnetism Any object that exhibits magnetic properties is called a magnet. Every magnet has two points, or poles, where most of its strength is concentrated; these are designated as a north-seeking pole, or north pole, and a south-seeking pole, or south pole, because a suspended magnet tends to orient itself along a north-south line. Since a magnet has two poles, it is sometimes called a magnetic dipole, being analogous to an electric dipole, composed of two opposite charges. The like poles of different magnets repel each other, and the unlike poles attract each other. One remarkable property of magnets is that whenever a magnet is broken, a north pole will appear at one of the broken faces and a south pole at the other, such that each piece has its own north and south poles. It is impossible to isolate a single magnetic pole, regardless of how many times a magnet is broken or how small the fragments become. (The theoretical question as to the possible existence in any state of a single magnetic pole, called a monopole, is still considered open by physicists; experiments to date have failed to detect one.) From his study of magnetism, C. A. Coulomb in the 18th cent. found that the magnetic forces between two poles followed an inverse-square law of the same form as that describing the forces between electric charges. The law states that the force of attraction or repulsion between two magnetic poles is directly proportional to the product of the strengths of the poles and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
EE Times - Researchers Explore Fractal Magnetism For Storage
Magnetic polymer materials being studied at Ohio State University couldgive rise to a new form of magnetism characterized by fractal fields.
http://www.eetimes.com/at/news/OEG20021218S0033

Extractions: Archives Epstein and Miller earlier this year discovered photo-induced magnetism in a polymer. Now they predict that as the polymer's dimensions shrink, the magnetic dimension of the field will become fractal. The scientists believe these polymers will eventually yield light-controlled magnetic materials for a new breed of electronic storage devices. "The fractal dimension of our magnetic material describes the 'spins,' or unpaired electrons, as being aligned in fractal patterns. The magnetic fields that result from the fractal order of the spins will have a fractal shape near the fractal-shaped spin cluster," Epstein said. The farther from the spin cluster, "the magnetic fields are no longer fractal in shape." The repeating pattern forms an overlapping, crisscrossing growth of interlocked fields, said the researchers. These fields follow the laws of fractal dimensions rather than ordinary physics. "This interlocking fractal growth gives the magnetic field a unique kind of order, and as a result, the material would be called a fractal cluster glass," said Epstein.

Extractions: 1 compass 1. Place the magnet in the center of the next page. 2. Put the compass near one end of the magnet. Let the needle stop moving. Note the direction of the needle. Lift the compass and draw an arrow where the compass was. The arrow should point in the same direction as the painted end of the compass needle. 3. Move the compass toward the middle of the magnet. When the needle settles, note its direction and draw an arrow as before. 4. Repeat this as you move the compass to the other end of the magnet. 5. Now start again from a different place near the end of the magnet. Go from end to end at least 3 times. Explore both above and below the magnet. 6. When you're done, your arrows show you where the magnetic field is.
