  2. Samarium–cobalt magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samarium–cobalt_magnet

    Samarium–cobalt magnet. A samarium–cobalt (SmCo) magnet, a type of rare-earth magnet, is a strong permanent magnet made of two basic elements: samarium and cobalt . They were developed in the early 1960s based on work done by Karl Strnat at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Alden Ray at the University of Dayton.

  3. Applied Magnetics Corporation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Applied_Magnetics_Corporation

    AMC was a major employer in Santa Barbara County, California, second only to the University of California, Santa Barbara. [6] Via acquisitions, AMC branched out into other computer components and equipment, such as magnetic core memory and printed circuit boards. In 1971, the company began marketing disk storage for small computers to provide a ...

  4. Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Permeability...

    Scientists. v. t. e. In electromagnetism, permeability is the measure of magnetization produced in a material in response to an applied magnetic field. Permeability is typically represented by the (italicized) Greek letter μ. It is the ratio of the magnetic induction to the magnetizing field as a function of the field in a material.

  5. Magnetic semiconductor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_semiconductor

    Magnetic semiconductors are semiconductor materials that exhibit both ferromagnetism (or a similar response) and useful semiconductor properties. If implemented in devices, these materials could provide a new type of control of conduction. Whereas traditional electronics are based on control of charge carriers ( n- or p-type ), practical ...

  6. Magnetic core - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_core

    Magnetic core. A magnetic core is a piece of magnetic material with a high magnetic permeability used to confine and guide magnetic fields in electrical, electromechanical and magnetic devices such as electromagnets, transformers, electric motors, generators, inductors, loudspeakers, magnetic recording heads, and magnetic assemblies.

  7. Neodymium magnet - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neodymium_magnet

    A neodymium magnet (also known as NdFeB, NIB or Neo magnet) is a permanent magnet made from an alloy of neodymium, iron, and boron to form the Nd 2 Fe 14 B tetragonal crystalline structure. [1] They are the most widely used type of rare-earth magnet. [2] Developed independently in 1984 by General Motors and in 1970s by Sumitomo Special Metals ...

    The plasma sheet is highlighted in yellow. In the magnetosphere, the plasma sheet is a sheet-like region of denser (0.3-0.5 ions/cm 3 versus 0.01-0.02 in the lobes) [citation needed] hot plasma and lower magnetic field located on the magnetotail and near the equatorial plane, between the magnetosphere's north and south lobes.

    Fuller c. 1910. Fuller was born on July 12, 1895, in Milton, Massachusetts, the son of Richard Buckminster Fuller and Caroline Wolcott Andrews, and grand-nephew of Margaret Fuller, an American journalist, critic, and women's rights advocate associated with the American transcendentalism movement.
