Description: Drawing of two homogeneously magnetized flat cylindrical magnets with exactly computed magnetic field lines for the case of vanishing susceptibility (
μ
r
≈ 1
{\displaystyle \mu _{r}\approx 1}
). The two magnets are aligned on top of each other along the cylinder axis and with a narrow gap in-between. This configuration is often used as a dipole magnet to create a strong and roughly uniform magnetic field in the gap, for instance in cyclotrons.
