A process for reducing a magnetized material to a neutral state, that is, to a state when both the magnetic induction B and the magnetic field strength H are equal to zero. (...) The standard demagnetization process involves applying a magnetizing force above a critical value for the material used, and successively reversing H in direction as the value of H is steadily reduced to a value less than those to be used in subsequent experiments. If the final value of H is essentially zero, the specimen is demagnetized. 4, record 2, English, - demagnetization

Démagnétisation des têtes: Tout enregistrement provoque une certaine magnétisation permanente des guides de métal et des têtes qui, à la longue, si elles ne sont pas démagnétisées, peuvent endommager le ruban, en plus d'augmenter le chuintement. Pour ce faire, vous utilisez un électro-aimant spécial que vous passez lentement le long des pièces métalliques (guides, têtes, arbre) [...]. Coupez l'alimentation du secteur. Approchez le démagnétiseur lentement des parties à démagnétiser, laissez un temps en passant de bas en haut, puis retirer très, très lentement pour éviter une nouvelle magnétisation. 3, record 2, French, - d%C3%A9magn%C3%A9tisation

Of the techniques used to produce such temperatures on the ground, adiabatic demagnetisation refrigeration(ADR) is the most promising for adaptation to use in space. ADRs utilise the magnetocaloric effect, the reduction in temperature observed when an external magnetic field is applied isothermally to a paramagnetic material, and then removed adiabatically. 1, record 4, English, - adiabatic%20demagnetisation%20refrigeration
