magnetodynamics
- 1The study of dynamic magnetic systems, treated as the magnetic counterpart of electrodynamics.
It mirrors electrodynamics, swapping the electric side of things for the magnetic one.
Researchers in magnetodynamics study how magnetic fields evolve in moving or changing systems.
Magnetodynamics provides a framework for describing time-varying magnetic phenomena.
Note
A name built the way its model was: magneto- plus dynamics, on the pattern of electrodynamics, whose approach it carries over to magnetic systems that move or change in time rather than sit still. Like physics itself, it is uncountable and takes a singular verb despite the final -s (magnetodynamics is, not are). It names a field, so one works in magnetodynamics, never on a magnetodynamics.

Origin
Formed from the combining form "magneto-" and the word "dynamics."
