Instead of using magnets opposing one another, is it possible to use neodymium magnets opposed by Bismuth arrays in an attempt to perform useful work?
Bismuth is very strongly diamagnetic (which is to say it creates a magnetic field in opposition to an externally applied magnetic field).
I would be interested to know if such arrays (in certain configurations) might prevent back-emf?
I was thinking for example about using Bismuth as a 'dielectric' in a neodymium sandwich and wondered what would happen in that event.
Could any configuration of bismuth and neodymium possibly be used to create that almost mythical creature, the magnetic monopole?
test,just wanted a link to this thread.
