Abstract

Magnetic susceptibility is defined by the relation (2.1) or alternatively (2.2) where a magnetization per unit volume M i or per unit mass J i is induced in a material of volume susceptibility k or mass susceptibility χ by an applied field B = µ 0 H. In SI units, using B = µ 0 (H + M),k is dimensionless and the units of χ are m3 kg −1. In this chapter we are initially concerned with isotropic susceptibility, i.e. susceptibility that is independent of the axis along which it is measured in a material and J i and B are parallel.
