Tesla (unit) Los Alamos National Laboratory campus of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory, the world's first 100-tesla non-destructive magnetic field. In September 2018 researchers at the University of Tokyo generated a field of 1200 T which lasted in the order of 100 microseconds using the electromagnetic flux-compression technique. A particle, carrying a charge of one coulomb, and moving perpendicularly through a magnetic field of one tesla, at a speed of one metre per second, experiences a force with magnitude one newton, according to the Lorentz force law. As an SI derived unit, the tesla can also be expressed as (The last
Magnetic tension force Magnetic tension force The magnetic tension force is a restoring force (SI unit: Pa·m) that acts to straighten bent magnetic field lines. It equals: It is analogous to rubber bands and their restoring force. The force is directed antiradially. Although magnetic tension is referred to as a force, it is actually a pressure gradient (Pa m) which is also a force density (N m). The magnetic pressure is the energy density of the magnetic field which can be visualized as increasing as magnetic field lines converge in a given volume of space. In contrast, magnetic tension force is determined by
