Pyromagnetic :: Pyromagnetic (a.) Acting by the agency of heat and magnetism; as, a pyromagnetic machine for producing electric currents..

Paramagnetism :: Paramagnetism (n.) Magnetism, as opposed to diamagnetism..

Photomagnetism :: Photomagnetism (n.) The branch of science which treats of the relation of magnetism to light.

Electro-biology :: Electro-biology (n.) That phase of mesmerism or animal magnetism, the phenomena of which are supposed to be produced by a form of electricity..

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

Phrenomagnetism :: Phrenomagnetism (n.) The power of exciting the organs of the brain by magnetic or mesmeric influence.

Thermomagnetism :: Thermomagnetism (n.) Magnetism as affected or caused by the action of heat; the relation of heat to magnetism.

Steel :: Steel (n.) A variety of iron intermediate in composition and properties between wrought iron and cast iron (containing between one half of one per cent and one and a half per cent of carbon), and consisting of an alloy of iron with an iron carbide. Steel, unlike wrought iron, can be tempered, and retains magnetism. Its malleability decreases, and fusibility increases, with an increase in carbon..
