Sideroscope :: Sideroscope (n.) An instrument for detecting small quantities of iron in any substance by means of a very delicate combination of magnetic needles.

Compass :: Compass (n.) An instrument for determining directions upon the earth's surface by means of a magnetized bar or needle turning freely upon a pivot and pointing in a northerly and southerly direction.

Medium :: Medium (n.) A substance through which an effect is transmitted from one thing to another; as, air is the common medium of sound. Hence: The condition upon which any event or action occurs; necessary means of motion or action; that through or by which anything is accomplished, conveyed, or carried on; specifically, in animal magnetism, spiritualism, etc., a person through whom the action of another being is said to be manifested and transmitted..

Magnetite :: Magnetite (n.) An oxide of iron (Fe3O4) occurring in isometric crystals, also massive, of a black color and metallic luster. It is readily attracted by a magnet and sometimes possesses polarity, being then called loadstone. It is an important iron ore. Called also magnetic iron..

Photomagnetic :: Photomagnetic (a.) Of or pertaining to photomagnetism.

Magnetomotor :: Magnetomotor (n.) A voltaic series of two or more large plates, producing a great quantity of electricity of low tension, and hence adapted to the exhibition of electro-magnetic phenomena..

Diamagnet :: Diamagnet (n.) A body having diamagnetic polarity.

Magneto- :: Magneto- () A prefix meaning pertaining to, produced by, or in some way connected with, magnetism..

Magnetical :: Magnetical (a.) Capable of becoming a magnet; susceptible to magnetism; as, the magnetic metals..

Martite :: Martite (n.) Iron sesquioxide in isometric form, probably a pseudomorph after magnetite..

Maneticness :: Maneticness (n.) Magneticalness.

Titaniferous :: Titaniferous (a.) Containing or affording titanium; as, titaniferous magnetite..

Force :: Force (n.) Any action between two bodies which changes, or tends to change, their relative condition as to rest or motion; or, more generally, which changes, or tends to change, any physical relation between them, whether mechanical, thermal, chemical, electrical, magnetic, or of any other kind; as, the force of gravity; cohesive force; centrifugal force..

Pyrrhotite :: Pyrrhotite (n.) A bronze-colored mineral, of metallic luster. It is a sulphide of iron, and is remarkable for being attracted by the magnet. Called also magnetic pyrites..

Retentivity :: Retentivity (n.) The power of retaining; retentive force; as, the retentivity of a magnet..

Axially :: Axially (adv.) In relation to, or in a line with, an axis; in the axial (magnetic) line..

Electro-magnetism :: Electro-magnetism (n.) The magnetism developed by a current of electricity; the science which treats of the development of magnetism by means of voltaic electricity, and of the properties or actions of the currents evolved..

Magnetist :: Magnetist (n.) One versed in magnetism.

Southness :: Southness (n.) A tendency in the end of a magnetic needle to point toward the south pole.
