uncountable

A physical property of certain materials, such as aluminum or platinum, that become weakly magnetized in the presence of an external magnetic field, with the magnetization disappearing once the field is removed.

  • 🇷🇺Физическое свойство некоторых материалов, таких как алюминий или платина, которые слабо намагничиваются в присутствии внешнего магнитного поля, причем намагниченность исчезает после удаления поля.
  1. Magnetic property of materials C2 formal scientific

    A form of magnetism where certain materials are weakly attracted by an externally applied magnetic field and form internal, induced magnetic fields in the direction of the applied field, but lose this magnetism when the field is removed.

    • Aluminum and platinum are classic examples of paramagnetic materials.
    • The paramagnetism of the sample was measured using a sensitive magnetometer.
    • Unlike ferromagnetism, paramagnetism does not retain magnetization after the external field is removed.
