2 Basic properties of a permanent magnet Magnetization "the strength of the magnet" depends on the magnitude of the atomic magnetic moments. M H Magnetic Order "the essence of macroscopic magnetism" The individual atomic moments must be aligned to produce a net magnetization paramagnetic material M Magnetic Anisotropy "the stubborness of a magnet" is the tendency to maintain the magnet orientation along a fixed spatial direction. H ferromagnetic material
