AI Thread Summary
The formula for magnetic pressure, P_M = B^2/(2μ_0), is commonly referenced but not well understood in terms of its derivation. Participants in the discussion express a desire for deeper insights into the origins of this formula rather than just its application. One user mentions they are currently researching the topic and plans to share their findings for further discussion. The conversation highlights a gap in available resources that explain the underlying principles of magnetic pressure. Engaging with others in the field is seen as a valuable way to enhance understanding.

I have seen a formula for magnetic pressure ##P_M=\frac{B^2}{2\mu_0}## Where does it come from? How my I derive it?

Mostly only the using this formula but not much what is behind.
I'm reading something right now but for me is nice to discusse it with others. In few hours I would write my attempt and ask around. That's my way.
