Abstract
This paper analyzes the tremendous impact and the immense contribution of the science of magnetism in the technological arena. It begins by introducing the concept of magnetism and then discusses how it applies to nuclear magnetic resonance. It then discusses performing in-vivo studies and magnetoencephalography (MEG). It finally discusses how the technology is used in magnetic storage and magnetic chips.
From the Paper
"This era is characterized by the rapid advancements made in technology and the remarkable breakthroughs in every frontier of science have dramatically altered our lives. The phenomenon of magnetism in particular has made a great contribution in this technological revolution. The electron microscope, which is based on principle of magnetism, was one of the important and earliest scientific achievements (1930) which broke the barriers in the study of cell biology. Extensive research and development in the field has deepened our understanding of magnetic science and today we are better equipped than ever before to harness the power of magnetism. The application of magnetism is diverse and extends to almost all fields of science right from critical medical diagnosis to space engineering and information technology."

Abstract
This paper discusses how magnetism is one of the most valuable phenomenons known to man and how throughout the many years after its discovery, magnetism has been used for countless innovations and technologies such as the compass and magnetic levitation. Ever since magnetism was discovered and was put to use back in the 1100's people have been developing and using it for countless applications. This paper explains the history of magnetism, how magnets work, and a few of the uses.
From the Paper
"Metal that had a strange ability to attract other pieces of metal was discovered by both the Greeks and the Chinese at about the same period of time ("History of Magnetism"). It is unknown which civilization discovered it first, but the word that is currently used to refer to it "magnetite" is the Greek name that was given to the pieces of metal that possessed those remarkable characteristics. The word "magnetite" developed because the Greeks discovered magnetism near the region of Magnesia in Turkey (Trinklein , 465). At around the year 1000 the Chinese discovered that a freely suspended magnetic needle would always point north (Stern and Peredo). After this discovery magnetite got another name. This name was "lodestone" which means leading stone (Trinklein , 465). During Columbus' journey to the new world, he noticed that the magnetic compass deviated slightly from true north (true north is measured by the star "Polaris", better known as the "North Star"). Around the year 1600, William Gilbert suggested an answer. "

Abstract
The paper discusses how healthcare organizations today may not have the financial ability or the time to achieve Magnet status, which can be beneficial to a hospital or healthcare organization in the end. The paper shows how those who take the time and effort, and have the money to do so are assured to be quality institutions by meeting and adhering to the intent of each of the Fourteen Forces of Magnetism.

From the Paper
"The synthesis of a magnetic susceptibility standard proved to be Hg[Co(NCS)4] through mercury analysis and magnetic measurements. Magnetic susceptibility characterization of four nickel(II) complexes, Ni(Et2en)2Cl2-2H20, Ni(Et2en)2(NCS)2, Ni(Et2en)2(NO3)2, and Ni(Et2en)2I2, is reported. Et2en is a bidentate ligand, which is bonded strongly to the Ni(II) metal center.
Ni(Et2en)2Cl2-2H2O and Ni(Et2en)2(NCS)2 were both paramagnetic with two unpaired electrons and had Ueff values of 3.17 B.M. and 3.20 B.M., respectively. Ni(Et2en)2(NO3)2 and Ni(Et2en)2I2 were both diamagnetic with no unpaired electrons and had Ueff values of 1.80 B.M. and 1.71 B.M., respectively. The color of the compounds correlates with their magnetic properties, where blue to violet compounds are paramagnetic and yellow to red complexes are diamagnetic."

Abstract
This paper explores animals' abilities to sense electricity and magnetism and their ability to use these qualities as part of their sensory machinery. The author examines the type of electrical energy that certain animals release and provides examples.
From the paper:
"Imagine what it would be like if you were able to sense electric and magnetic fields. You would be able predict when a bad lightning storm was coming and orient yourself in the right direction if you were lost in the woods. Although such abilities only exist in fantasy for humans, many animals? posses these abilities in real life. In this paper we will explore the fascinating ability of certain animals to use electricity and magnetism as part of their sensory machinery."

Abstract
This report reviews literature on the operating procedure and magnetic properties of electrochemical deposited Co-based magnetic films. The significance and limitations of electrochemical deposit Co-based magnetic films are analyzed.
From the Paper
" Hard magnetic materials have been a focus of interest in electrical engineering for years because of their applications as media in recording and potential applications in fabricating magnetic MEMS devices due to the strong magnetic field produced by them in absence of applying magnetic field1.2. Besides the hard ferrites and Nd2Fe14 B1, Cobalt or Cobalt-RE based magnets are mostly used hard magnetic materials because of their good magnetic properties as well as their excellent mechanical properties1. Generally speaking, Cobalt based hard magnetic materials are fabricated by PVD methods such as RF sputtering or evaporation. However, it is likely to be time and money consuming to apply these procedures, especially for a relatively thick film, say, 20mm or more, is needed. Furthermore, the fabrication of the film-type magnets on silicon wafers with CMOS integrated circuits has been considered as one of the most extremely difficult tasks due to the fabrication processing incompatibility between them."

Abstract
The following paper will argue that Magnet Status Recognition is (for the most part) a very effective way of assisting hospitals in developing a level of health care and nursing excellence needed for success in the twenty-first century. To start with, I will introduce the topic of Magnet Status Recognition by describing what precisely it is; from there, the paper will begin an exhaustive critique of what this sort of designation does - and, in some cases, does not do. In the end, Magnet Status may not be flawless, but it does appear to boost the morale of nurses - and it does lead to better nursing care.

The paper concludes with a reflective section on what was learned and the writer's overall feelings on the subject.
From the Paper
"Static, rather than pulsing magnetic therapy, where magnets are placed on an area and taped in place, is believed to be effective due to the increase in blood flow in the locally affected area (Ramsey, (n.d.)). Faraday's Law dictates that magnets exert a force on moving ionic currents (Ramsey, (n.d.)). Adding Hall's Law that tells us that a magnet will deflect and separate charged ions when placed perpendicular to the direction of the electrical current, one can assess the implications for circulation (Ramsey, (n.d.)).

Abstract
This paper discusses the magnetic hard disk drive and how it works, from its creation to the present day. It also discusses possible future technological advances. It then discusses the varied uses of hard drives and the impact the device has had on society over the past few decades.
From the Paper
"Personal computer technology has grown exponentially over the past few decades, but at its core, construction remains focused on certain necessary components. The magnetic hard disk drive is one of those components. Despite its importance and widespread use, many casual computer users know little about the history of or workings of this device. The magnetic hard disk drive, or simply hard drive, as it is known by most computer users, has come a long way and evolved over fifty years to become the ubiquitous storage device the world knows today."
