Incompatible moments A spinning charge (left) acts like a loop of current to produce a magnetic dipole moment (blue arrow). Distorting the electron's charge distribution (middle) produces an electric ...

No new particles: artist’s impression of how virtual particles could give the electron an electric dipole moment. (Courtesy: Nicolle Fuller/NSF) It is well known that the electron has a magnetic ...

From the slopes of these three lines, I can get three different magnetic dipole moments. They are: Traditional Compass: μ = 0.2207 A*m 2; iPhone Compass: μ = 0.0525 A*m 2; xSensor: μ = 0.3077 A ...

Every breath we take in contains 21% oxygen, the gas that makes life on Earth possible. Oxygen, in its combined oxide state, ...

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering how those tool magnetizer/demagnetizer gadgets worked, [Electromagnetic Videos] has produced a pretty succinct and informative video on the subject. Wh… ...

To understand magnetic resonance, first start by making the assumption that the dipole moment of a single proton in a uniform magnetic field behaves like a compass needle.

Unlike Earth, Mars has no global magnetic dipole, but the solar wind instead induces currents in the ionised upper atmosphere (the ionosphere), creating an induced magnetosphere.
