Magnet Core Solenoid?

Well, you can test the theory by building an inductor, use the right hand rule to determine the north side of the electromagnet, and then test it with a compass.

I know that there is that disparity between electronic (- to +) flow and positronic (+ to -) flow...  After reading the Alchemical Manual I believe that there is a bidirectional flow happening, the particles (electrons) flow from negative to positive, and the holes (positrons) are flowing in the opposite direction from positive to negative.

A magnetic field also has a bidirectional flow, time field predominant forces are flowing in one direction and and space field predominant forces are flowing in the opposite direction.  Space Time Fields make the whole magnetism thing a lot easier to understand, thanks Aaity, and the Starfriends...

I do not know what the permeability of a Neodymium-Iron-Boron magnet would be, probably better than Iron alone.

The permeability of a Neodymium-Iron-Boron magnet is the same as air, namely 1.

It's not possible to alter the flux of a NdFeb magnet by a surrounding coil.
It would take an extremely heavy duty magnetizing force to affect the magnet.
But the heavy force would also demagnetize the ndFeb at the same time.

This idea is flawed and will not work.

Thanks Ergo and everyone.

I understand that in the manufacture of NDFEBs they use large currents through large capacitors and dump them in a solenoid coil to align the moments.

So, I suppose I am describing the same, and it would demag if I meet or exceed the coercivity?
I thought this might be an issue, BUT...

What if the coil was 2 inches in diameter with .5 inch mag in center and my "gate" magnets on either side are now actually closer to coil than to NDFEB?



Best regards,

Its worth a try...

You don't have to overpower the magnet...

You just have to get it to wiggle...

The fluctuation of the flux lines causes accretion of electrons...

I agree with Ergo.
Myself I don't belive you can create enough force by your coil to affect the magnet.
The equipment used at the factory consist of a superconducting coil and a bank of
super strong and large capacitors that dumps their charge into the coil.
This creates a field of 10-20 teslas and it not possible to do is on your own.
But I also agree with z.monkey. It could be worth a try just for fun.
