Variation of susceptibility as observed by magnetic levitation of liquid droplets
The magnetic force is applied for the precisely controlled levitation of salt-containing water droplets in oil phase. This levitation phenomena analyses were achieved by the analytical calculation of the inhomogeneous space distribution of the field and force in the bore of a vertical superconducting magnet. The tiny effects on the droplet position are explained as variation of the diamagnetic susceptibility in the course of levitation.
