| As Krakiwsky explains, the weak magnetism produced by certain atomic nuclei is called nuclear paramagnetism. |
| This type of paramagnetism occurs for conduction electrons in a metal. |
| Characteristics of gadolinium that make it favorable as a contrast agent include its high paramagnetism and its exceptionally long electronic relaxation time. |
| This paramagnetism is used to obtain fast, accurate oxygen measurements. |
| Like diamagnetism, paramagnetism is weak and exists only in the presence of an applied field, but since the effect enhances the applied field, the sign of the paramagnetic susceptibility is always positive. |
| The totally different character of paramagnetism and diamagnetism demonstrated by Curie was later explained theoretically by Paul Langevin. |
