Abstract
LONDON. Physical Society, November 8.—Prof. A. W. Rücker, Vice-President, in the chair.—Mr. W. H. Everett read a paper on the magnetic field of any cylindrical coil or plane circuit. The method of treatment is based on the formula for the force due to an element of current. A single integration applied to one component of this force gives for any point in the field due to a plane circuit the force perpendicular to its plane; and a double integration gives the longitudinal force at any point due to a cylindrical coil of any cross-section, the depth of winding being supposed inconsiderable.
