Permeability

"Permeability} is the degree of magnetization of a material that responds linearly to an applied magnetic field. In general permeability is a tensor-valued quantity. The definition given applies to an isotropic medium. For an anisotropic medium permeability is a second order tensor. In electromagnetism, permeability is the measure of the ability of a material to support the formation of a magnetic field within itself. In other words, it is the degree of magnetization that a material obtains in response to an applied magnetic field. Magnetic permeability is typically represented by the Greek letter \(\mu\). The term was coined in September, 1885 by Oliver Heaviside. The reciprocal of magnetic permeability is \textit{Magnetic Reluctivity".

\(\mu = \frac{B}{H}\), where \(B\) is magnetic flux density, and \(H\) is magnetic field strength.
