magnetic dipole moment [mag′ned·ik ′dī‚pōl ‚mō·mənt] (electromagnetism) A vector associated with a magnet, current loop, particle, or such, whose cross product with the magnetic induction (or alternatively, the magnetic field strength) of a magnetic field is equal to the torque exerted on the system by the field. Also known as dipole moment; magnetic moment. How to thank TFD for its existence?

The experiment to measure the neutron EDM is based on the magnetic resonance technique of rotating a magnetic dipole moment in a magnetic field. As a demonstrative example one may consider a neutron coupling to a magnetic field H(R(t)) = -[mu] * B(R(t)) due to its magnetic dipole moment [mu] = [[mu]. |
