Another important property of a magnetometer is whether it is scalar or vector, that is, whether it measures the total magnitude, or specific cartesian components of the magnetic field.
Physicists and engineers have developed a groundbreaking method to measure magnetic field orientation using atoms as tiny ...
Yang and his colleagues hope to combine their research with other techniques to get a deeper understanding of the full vector ...
This means that their magnetism is there all the time and cannot be turned on or off as it can with an electromagnet. Converting a magnet to a non-magnet is called demagnetisation. Magnets are ...
