THE ANGULAR DEVIATION OF THE TOTAL MAGNETIC FIELD VECTOR DUE TO A SMALL INDUCED DIPOLE IN A UNIFORM MAGNETIC FIELD,
Abstract
The angular deviation alpha of the total magnetic field vector produced by a small magnetic dipole induced in isotropic magnetic material in a uni form magnetic field has been calculated. The angular deviation is given in terms of cylindrical coordinates with the origin of the system at the center of the dipole. The function alpha then is maximized with respect to the polar angle, the radius vector, and the angle of inclination of the uniform magnetic field. The maximum value of the component of the total magnetic field per pendicular to the uniform field is derived from the maximized alpha. Since direct means of accurately measuring small values of alpha may prove difficult, an indirect method of obtaining alpha is suggested. (Author)
