Magnetic flux refers to the measurement of the total magnetic field passing through a given area. It is a way to quantify how strong a magnetic field is within a specific region.

Some of the earliest «smart» pigs, developed in the 1960s, pioneered the use
of magnetic flux leakage technology to detect pipeline imperfections.
Scientists believe these bright points to be signs of what's called
magnetic flux tubes, which are the building blocks of the sun's magnetic field.
The planets may have a spin - orbit coupling effect on the Sun which affects its rotation rate, which would then affect the solar dynamo and sunspot production, and therefore the build up of
magnetic flux at the poles, and the length of a solar cycle: if the solar cycle is weaker with less sunspots, it'll take longer for the build up of opposing flux to reach the point when it flips the poles.
The method we favour gives almost identical umbral and penumbral areas and very similar
total magnetic fluxes in faculae.
«Faraday said
changing magnetic flux generates anelectromotive force — a voltage, if you like,» says Blandford, who is nowat Caltech.
Myers» thesis, titled «Laboratory Study of the Equilibrium and Eruption of Line - Tied
Magnetic Flux Ropes in the Solar Corona,» gave rise to several first - authored papers that included a Nature magazine piece describing a previously unknown mechanism that halts solar eruptions.
Sharing high
magnetic flux density and neodymium magnets, the two have a very crisp, detailed sound with an emphasis on the upper midrange, which brings detail forward.
The MMF are small magnetic elements that move away from sunspots (unipolar only) and collide with the opposite polarity field and result in
magnetic flux cancellation.
As the process continues and
magnetic flux strength of the sunspot group declines, the lifetime of a sunspot group (of the few sunspot groups that do form) has decreased to where we are now at the point that a sunspot group's lifetime is for a number of cases only a few days.
«Faraday said changing
magnetic flux generates an electromotive force — a voltage, if you like,» says Blandford, who is now at Stanford University.
If plasma near the black hole is threaded by large -
scale magnetic flux, it will rotate with respect to asymptotic infinity, creating large magnetic stresses.
And powerful
magnetic fluxes also could mean periodic drop - offs in the amount of energy reaching the planet, by as much as 40 percent.
You might have hit the nail on the head, Hathaway studies the two conveyor belts that transport
magnetic flux from the equator to the poles and back again.
Then, by controlling the qubit with an
external magnetic flux, they were able to inject individual mechanical quanta into the resonator, the first step toward the quantum control of a mechanical system.
Laboratory studies of
magnetic flux leakage turned out to be crucial for repairing broken gas pipelines (see «How to Fix Our Most Vexing Problems, From Mosquitoes to Potholes to Missing Corpses»).
The three existing circuit elements — resistor, capacitor and inductor — depend on relationships between pairs that control how electricity flows, how it gets stored and how it changes as it moves through a circuit: • resistor (voltage + current) • capacitor (voltage + charge) • inductor (
magnetic flux + current)
For certain applications, there is indeed a desire for a kind of compensator, namely for a relatively
low magnetic flux to match conditions as under very strong fields.
Even if one assumes that some poorly known quantum effects could affect the amount of
magnetic flux contained in the superconducting ring, or in materials placed above the ring, the fact that mass and energy curves the space around them still holds true.
The models with
vertical magnetic flux develop extended, magnetically - supported atmospheres that reprocess extra starlight, raising the near - infrared flux 20 %.
1960 The SI (International System of Weights and Measures) unit
for magnetic flux density became the Tesla.
On Earth's nightside, magnetic reconnection happens in the magnetotail,
where magnetic flux tubes originally disconnected on the dayside are reconnected.
Whether this function has any impact on F10.7 Flux production is unclear to me, but one would assume
if magnetic flux is being vacuumed off the face there would be a reduction in F10.7 Flux.
Ice core measurements of beryllium indicate a less variable TSI while modelling from solar
magnetic flux show a greater decrease in TSI during the Maunder Minimum.
The darkest regions with the least amount of
magnetic flux correspond to the faint supergranule cell interior (component A).
Imin.state (λ) is the irradiance of an absolute minimum state of the Sun, with a minimum of
remaining magnetic flux emerging on the solar surface.
This provides strong support for the hypothesis that solar irradiance variations are caused by changes in the amount and distribution of
magnetic flux at the solar surface.

(2) describes the cyclic component of solar variability caused by the 11 - year activity cycle, while the slower long - term changes owing to the evolution of the small -
scale magnetic flux are given by Eq.
Note that the IPCC concentrates on Solar Irradiance, but ignores other solar energies such as that associated with
Solar Magnetic Flux that has more than doubled since 1900.
