the physical property of being magnetic the process that makes a substance magnetic (temporarily or permanently) the extent or degree to which something is magnetized
The magnetic field induced by an ensemble of magnetic spins The magnitude of the magnetization depends on the number of spins, the extent of alignment and the magnetic moments
The excess induction in a ferromagnetic material over that for free space; the cgs unit is gauss, equal to 4p poles/cm3
The magnetization of an igneous rock that was acquired at the time it cooled from the molten state; it provides information on the Earth's magnetic field at that time
mag·net·ize magnetizes magnetizing magnetized in BRIT, also use magnetise If you magnetize something, you make it magnetic. Make a Mobius strip out of a ribbon of mild steel and magnetise it. a small metal chessboard with magnetized playing pieces
