Abstract
- A current-carrying wire hanging between two suspension points in a transverse magnetic field adopts a shape intermediate between a circle and a hyperbolic cosine. This magnetocatenary can be analytically calculated as a novel extension of the standard hanging chain problem in an intermediate mechanics course.<br />Published in European Journal of Physics v33 p1667-1675, 2012.
