Abstract
The magnetic permeability of iron wire at high frequencies.—G. R. Wait, investigating the magnetic permeability of iron and magnetite in high frequency magnetic fields, did not observe a critical variation of the permeability at about 3000 kilocycles (100 meters wave-length) as reported by Wwedensky and Theodortschik. It was suggested that the difference in the results might have been due to: (1) a difference in the kinds of iron investigated; (2) a difference in the strengths of the magnetic fields; and (3) a difference in the manner of suspending the iron sample. A sample of iron wire in which critical variations had been observed by Kartschagin and by Mitiaev was used in the present investigation with the same apparatus as had previously been used by Wait. Experiments were carried out in a magnetic field of an intensity equal to 0.5 gauss, as previously used by Wait, and also in a field of 0.01 gauss, the intensity of the field in which Wwedensky and Theodortschik observed the critical variation. Different methods of binding the sample were also tried. In no case was a critical variation in permeability observed.Keywords
