Demagnetization curve
The portion of the hysteresis loop in the second quadrant. This diagram gives the most important information about a permanent magnet: Br, HcB, HcJ, BHmax, working point, etc.

Demagnetisation factor
In a magnetized magnet exists an internal demagnetization field Hd produced by the poles of the magnet itself. This field has opposite direction respect the magnetization M and it is related to it by the relationship Hd = N×M, where N is the demagnetization factor.

Demagnetisation
Reduction of magnetisation by different means: an opposed field, an alternating and decreasing field or an increasing of the temperature (above the Curie temperature).
^ top ^
Demagnetization field
A magnetizing force applied in such a direction as to reduce the remaining induction in a magnetized body.
^ top ^
Diamagnetic material
A material having permeability less than permeability of vacuum µ0 (and a negative susceptibility).
^ top ^
Differential permeability µd
It is defined as the slope of the normal induction curve:
1 dB
µd = ____ . ____
