Oersted



The centimeter-gram-second electromagnetic unit of magnetic field strength, equal to the magnetic intensity one centimeter from a unit magnetic pole.

The Science of Hans Christian Oersted. By the year 1800 Oersted was a pharmacy manager. In this year a scientific revolution began. Alessandro Volta announced details of his battery, opening new territory for chemists and physicists: Volta’s battery enabled them to produce a steady flow of electricity for the first time and, happily, the materials needed to build one were easily obtained.

Oersted Technology offers an innovative line of magnetizers, magnetizing fixtures, and magnetic/electromagnetic equipment for use in manufacturing, research, and development applications. Specifically, we provide products for use in the production and testing of permanent magnets, motors, and electromagnetic systems. Oersted definition, the centimeter-gram-second unit of magnetic intensity, equal to the magnetic pole of unit strength when undergoing a force of one dyne in a vacuum. Abbreviation: Oe See more.

Oersted Experiment

The unit of magnetic field strength in the centimeter-gram-second system. A unit magnetic monopole in a magnetic field with a strength of one oersted would be subjected to a force of one dyne. It is equal to 79.577 amperes per meter.
Pronounced 'erst-ed.' The measurement of magnetic energy. The higher the Oe rating in a material, the more current is required to change its magnetic polarity. Named after the Danish scientist, Hans Cristian Oersted (1777-1851), it is used, for example, to measure the coercivity point on magnetic media. See coercivity.
