Magnetic permeability Vs. Magnetic susceptibility

[Keith]

Hi I'm trying to find the difference between magnetic susceptibility and permeability? Do they both mean the same thing? If not, can anyone clear things up for me?

I discovered I don't know magnetism well enough to even piece together a conceptual understanding so I'm going to go cry in a corner. lol

LOL. I think what Dave is asking is what did you learn from reading the two articles at wikipedia about this? They are different but semi-related quantities, as described by the articles.

Please read through those articles, and ask specific questions about the things that you do not understand in them.
