[Magnetic parameters of the bees Apis mellifera mellifera (L.) obtained by SQUID-magnetometry]
Abstract:
It was found using SQUID-magnetometry that the dependence of the magnetization of a bee on the intensity of the applied magnetic fields has the form of a hysteresis loop. By using the parameters of the loop, the magnetic phases were identified and their characteristics were determined. It was found that the diamagnetic component is significant and has a susceptibility = -1,3335 x 10(-8) Gs x cm3/Oe. The ferromagnetite phase is represented by a multidomain magnetite with the coercive force of 70-80 Oe and magnetic saturation momnts of 4 x 10(-5) EMU (Gs x cm3) and residual moment of 3.07 x 10(-6) EMU.
