Magnetization relation to magnetic field applied

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion centers on the relationship between magnetization and the applied magnetic field (B0) in the context of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). It is established that while magnetization is indeed a property of the material, it can be influenced by the strength of the applied magnetic field, with stronger fields resulting in greater magnetization. Additionally, magnetization can possess both longitudinal and transverse components, which play significant roles in NMR and MRI applications. The distinction between magnetization and magnetic permeability is clarified, emphasizing that permeability is a material property, while magnetization can be altered through external magnetic fields.

A few simple questions which I am not sure about, it's about NMR.

First sentence: "A magentic field B0 is applied on a sample, If the applied magnetic field B0 is stronger, the magnetisation of material is greater" . Would you say that sentence is correct? As I understood, magnetization is a property of the material, so it confuses me.

Second question is: does magnetization have only a longitudinal component? In which cases does it have a transverse one as well? and how does that contribute to NMR/MRI ?Thanks for assisting
