	Magnetic susceptibility - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In electrical engineering, the magnetic susceptibility is the degree of magnetization of a material in response to an applied magnetic field.
		In this case, the magnetic field is strengthened by the presence of the material.
		The magnetic susceptibility of a ferromagnetic substance is not a scalar.

	Permeability (electromagnetism) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In electromagnetism, permeability is the degree of magnetization of a material that responds linearly to an applied magnetic field.
		Magnetic permeability is represented by the symbol μ.
		If one puts the ferromagnetic material into an externally applied magnetic field, the domains tend to line up, so that the sum of the fields from the ferromagnet and the applied magnetic field is higher in magnitude than the applied magnetic field alone.

	Borehole Geophysics and Petrophysics - Magnetic susceptibility
		The magnetic susceptibility (MS) of a volume of rock is a function of the amount of magnetic minerals, (mainly magnetite and pyrrhotite), contained within the rock.
		The magnetic susceptibility tool is a Geoinstruments model TH-3C probe which uses a signal processing unit developed at the GSC (Bristow and Bernius, 1984; Bristow, 1985).
		As mentioned above in the section on magnetic susceptibility, the secondary field at the receiver coil is measured and the out of phase component is proportional to electrical conductivity (quadrature).

		The magnetic susceptibility can be used for stratigraphic correlations between cores and in the frequency analyses of temporal series to detect sedimentary cycles.
		The magnetic susceptibility (k) measures the capability of the material to become magnetized and to produce a noise in the inducing fields.
		Paramagnetic mineral are iron and nickel, iron magnetic are the iron oxides (magnetite, hematite, ilmenite, maglemite) hydroxides (limonite, goethite) and sulfurs (pyrite).

	Oxford Archaeotechnics topsoil magnetic susceptibility mapping
		The success of magnetic survey in locating areas of archaeological potential is dependent upon a number of factors, and is influenced by geology, the nature of the former activity and subsequent landuse.
		The magnetic contrasts often present between buried infilled features or structures and the substrate also create local anomalies in the earth's magnetic field which can be detected by magnetometer survey allowing relatively detailed plots to be made of buried archaeological features.
		In some cases the locations of former ploughed-down earthworks are apparent as contrasting (generally magnetically weaker) patterns against the local background, the weaker soil magnetic susceptibility levels reflecting the 'diluting' effect caused by the presence in the topsoil of residual 'clean' material from the core of the former structure.

	Source of Magnetic Susceptibility Enhancement in Paleosols---the Roles of Pedogenesis
		Magnetic susceptibility of a given paleosol varies across the loess plateau, showing an increase from west to east.
		The decrease in magnetic susceptibility even in the loess was interpreted to indicate pedogenic modification of the loess.
		Toward the goal of using magnetic susceptibility enhancement to understand better the climate records (e.g., as an indicator of paleoprecipitation), a next step would be to combine the different methods on the same samples.

	Paramagnetism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Paramagnetism is the tendency of the atomic magnetic dipoles to align with an external magnetic field.
		The alignment of the atomic dipoles with the magnetic field tends to strengthen it and is described by a relative magnetic permeability greater than unity (or, equivalently, a small positive magnetic susceptibility).
		Paramagnetic materials in magnetic fields will act like magnets but when the field is removed, thermal motion will quickly disrupt the magnetic alignment.

	Classification of Magnetic Materials
		The two most common types of magnetism are diamagnetism and paramagnetism, which account for the magnetic properties of most of the periodic table of elements at room temperature (see figure 3).
		Finally, magnetic materials can also be classified as ferrimagnetic although this is not observed in any pure element but can only be found in compounds, such as the mixed oxides, known as ferrites, from which ferrimagnetism derives its name.
		The value of magnetic susceptible falls into a particular range for each type of material and this is shown in table 2 with some examples.

	Magnetic Susceptibility Balances
		Based on their magnetic properties, all substances can be classified into one of three groups, those attracted by a strong magnetic field, known as paramagnetic, those repelled, designated diamagnetic, and, finally, the most recognised class, ferromagnetic, unique in their ability to retain their own magnetic field.
		THE MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBLITY IS DEFINED AS "The ratio of the intensity of magnetism induced in a substance to the magnetising force or intensity of field to which it is subject.
		As all substances exhibit magnetic properties it is possible to use magnetic phenomena to identify, differentiate and quantitatively measure components and contaminants in mixtures non destructively.

	Magnetic Susceptibility Studies (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		Magnetic susceptibilty is a measure of the ability of a material, in this case soil, to become magnetised by an external magnetic field.
		When the technique is used in conjunction with measurements of magnetic viscosity (the 'sluggishness' of magnetic particles when they are repeatedly realigned by an external field) it is possible to use the two variables to determine the source of the magnetic properties of the soil sample.
		Magnetic susceptibility is therefore both a survey and a diagnostic tool.

	Geophysics - Magnetic Susceptibility
		Magnetic susceptibility survey is generally used as a tool for locating concentrations of archaeological settlement i.e.
		These features are detectable due to their enhanced magnetic susceptibility, which is acquired through intense burning activity during site occupation, and through the ‘fermentation’ of archaeological deposits remaining in situ.
		Where there is sufficient contrast between the magnetic susceptibility of the subsoil and that of the archaeological features these variations can be mapped and used as key indicators for further, more detailed investigation.

	Theory
		Because we propose to study the magnetic susceptibility of various materials, it is necessary to include a brief description of magnetic susceptibility.
		While many atoms have a permanent non-zero magnetic moment, the net magnetic moment of an assembly of atoms is generally zero due to the random orientation of atoms.
		This comes about because inside the magnetic field a current is induced on the surface layer of the superconductor in such a way that its magnetic field cancels the applied field.

	RECOVERING FLOW FABRICS IN DIATEXITE: LOW-FIELD ANISOTROPY OF MAGNETIC SUSCEPTIBILITY (AMS) IN THE NAXOS MIGMATITE ...
		Bulk magnetic susceptibilities, measured in low field on 32 diatexite samples (~12 cubes per sample) in the subdome, are generally low (2-100 x 10-6 SI), suggesting the magnetic properties are likely carried by biotite.
		Magnetic lineation shows the most systematic variation; it is steeply plunging in the core of the subdome and against the marble bordering the subdome on the west, whereas more intermediate to shallowly plunging magnetic lineations girdle the subdome on the other sides.
		The planar and linear magnetic fabric obtained from AMS, and the somewhat systematic spatial variation of these data in the sampled subdome, indicates that AMS is a sensitive indicator of rock fabric in diatexite.

		The basis behind the magnetic susceptibility balance is that a paramagnetic sample will be attracted to a magnet and a diamagnetic sample will be slightly repelled.
		In the balance used, the sample is fixed in position and the force of the sample on a pair of permanent magnet is measured yielding the measured magnetic susceptibility.
		The diamagnetic susceptibility of the bonds need to be added as well for nonsingle bonds unless the system is aromatic and the aromatic values of the atoms are used.
