Excerpt from A Study of the Effects of Changes of Temperature on Permanent Magnetism
Lamont found that if a magnet was alternately heat ed and cooled for f1fteen or sixteen times between two given limits of temperature it reached a permanent state, in which it had a definite magnetic moment corresponding to a given temperature, to Wth it always returned when brought to that temperature, provided its temperature has never passed outside the limits referred to above. The magnetic moments were small er, the higher the temperature.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating and complex world of magnetism, specifically exploring the impact of temperature changes on the magnetic properties of steel. The author, a researcher at Johns Hopkins University, takes the reader on a journey through the history of this field, examining the work of pioneering scientists like "upffer, Lamont, Riess and Moser, and Wiedemann. These early researchers, working in the late 19th century, were intrigued by the phenomenon of permanent magnets losing their strength when heated and regaining some strength upon cooling. The author meticulously outlines their experiments, including their methods and results, providing context for his own contemporary investigation. His own research, however, goes beyond simply documenting the changes in magnetism due to temperature fluctuations. The author seeks to uncover the mechanisms behind these changes. Through meticulously designed experiments, he investigates the effect of temperature on the distribution of magnetism within steel bars of different lengths and sizes. The book presents the author's data in the form of detailed tables and graphs, allowing readers to visually track the patterns of magnetic change. The author further analyzes this data, seeking to determine whether changes in magnetism are caused by a shift in the distribution of magnetic forces within the steel, or if magnetism itself is influenced by temperature. The book concludes with a discussion of the author's findings, raising important questions about the nature of magnetism and its relationship to the physical properties of materials. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of scientific inquiry, the properties of magnets, or the intricate interplay between physics and materials science.
