Sharp-front wave of strong magnetic field diffusion in solid metal

  • 1. Institute of Fluid Physics, CAEP, P.O. Box 919-105, Mianyang 621900 (China)

Description

When a strong magnetic field diffuses into a solid metal, if the metal's resistance possesses an abrupt rise at some critical temperature and the magnetic field strength is above some critical value, the magnetic field will diffuse into the metal in the form of a sharp-front wave. Formulas for the critical conditions under which a sharp-front magnetic diffusion wave emerges and a formula for the wave-front velocity are derived in this work.
