Levitation of small diamagnetic particle

Abstract

The aim of this article consists in the construction of a magneto-electrical scheme, which, due to distribution of a magnetic field, gives the opportunity of obtaining the area of stable equilibrium for small diamagnetic (for example, biological) particle, freely «soaring» in the gravitational field of Earth. At the same time due to small diamagnetic susceptibility of the particle the magnetic field doesn’t have essential distortion. This experiment can be considered as a model of a biological object behavior in the weightless conditions or it may give the possibility for investigation of the properties of isolated particles under temperature, magnetic and other physical exposures.
