Champ magnétique interplanétairevignette|La nappe de courant héliosphérique le long de la spirale de Parker est la forme prise par le champ magnétique solaire dans le milieu interplanétaire. Le champ magnétique interplanétaire (CMI), également connu sous le nom de champ magnétique de l'héliosphère, est le champ magnétique du Soleil porté par le vent solaire à travers les planètes et autres corps du Système solaire, dans le milieu interplanétaire jusqu'au confins de l'héliosphère. Les modélisations actuelles du CMI lui donnent une forme de spirale, nommée spirale de Parker.
MagnetochemistryMagnetochemistry is concerned with the magnetic properties of chemical compounds. Magnetic properties arise from the spin and orbital angular momentum of the electrons contained in a compound. Compounds are diamagnetic when they contain no unpaired electrons. Molecular compounds that contain one or more unpaired electrons are paramagnetic. The magnitude of the paramagnetism is expressed as an effective magnetic moment, μeff. For first-row transition metals the magnitude of μeff is, to a first approximation, a simple function of the number of unpaired electrons, the spin-only formula.
Electric dipole spin resonanceElectric dipole spin resonance (EDSR) is a method to control the magnetic moments inside a material using quantum mechanical effects like the spin–orbit interaction. Mainly, EDSR allows to flip the orientation of the magnetic moments through the use of electromagnetic radiation at resonant frequencies. EDSR was first proposed by Emmanuel Rashba. Computer hardware employs the electron charge in transistors to process information and the electron magnetic moment or spin for magnetic storage devices.
Pression magnétiqueEn électromagnétisme, la pression magnétique désigne une quantité associée au champ magnétique, s'apparentant dans certaines situations à une force de pression, d'où son nom. La pression magnétique apparaît en magnétohydrodynamique, quand on écrit la version idoine de l'équation d'Euler, c'est-à-dire l'équivalent du principe fondamental de la dynamique appliqué à un élément de fluide soumis à un champ magnétique.
Electrical resistivity and conductivityElectrical resistivity (also called volume resistivity or specific electrical resistance) is a fundamental specific property of a material that measures its electrical resistance or how strongly it resists electric current. A low resistivity indicates a material that readily allows electric current. Resistivity is commonly represented by the Greek letter ρ (rho). The SI unit of electrical resistivity is the ohm-metre (Ω⋅m).
Magnetic storageMagnetic storage or magnetic recording is the storage of data on a magnetized medium. Magnetic storage uses different patterns of magnetisation in a magnetizable material to store data and is a form of non-volatile memory. The information is accessed using one or more read/write heads. Magnetic storage media, primarily hard disks, are widely used to store computer data as well as audio and video signals. In the field of computing, the term magnetic storage is preferred and in the field of audio and video production, the term magnetic recording is more commonly used.
