thermomagnetic
- adjective
- /ˌθɜrmoʊməˈɡnɛtɪk/
- Specialized
- Thermomagnetic phenomena can be observed when certain metals are heated in a magnetic field.
Examples
-
Data recording is achieved through a thermomagnetic process, which is also known as Curie point writing, since it relies on the threshold properties of the Curie temperature of magnetic materials.
Academic text (1996) -

Etymology
Thermomagnetic starts with thermo- meaning 'heat', as in thermometer, and the second part magnetic comes from magnet, a thing that pulls metal. So thermomagnetic describes things where 'heat' and 'magnetism' work together.
