- Paramagnetism
- A magnetic characteristic in which the magnetic moment in the material does not generate magnetization of the whole in various random directions in the absence of an external magnetic field, but when an external magnetic field is applied, the magnetic moments align in their own way according to the intensity of the magnetic field and generate magnetization. Such materials are called paramagnetic bodies.
