## Abstract We studied the swimming orientation of the ciliated protozoan __Paramecium aurelia__ in a static magnetic field (0.78โT). __P. aurelia__ is a complex of species termed syngens, whose cell morphology appears similar on microscopic examination. In the magnetic field, the cells of some syn

The nonlinear response of a high-temperature superconductor hairpin-comb filter in a perpendicular dc magnetic field was examined through measurement of its insertion loss and center frequency. The effect of the applied field on the insertion loss at low field regime is small, and increases graduall
In a uniform static magnetic field up to 8 Telsa, glutaraldehyde-fixed erythrocytes showed an orientation in which their disk plane was perpendicular to the magnetic field. The paramagnetism of membrane-bound hemoglobin was through to contribute significantly to this orientation. The observation of
