Paramagnetism is a form of magnetism whereby certain materials are weakly attracted by an externally applied magnetic field, and form internal, induced magnetic fields in the direction of the applied magnetic field.

Diamagnetism, kind of magnetism characteristic of materials that line up at right angles to a nonuniform magnetic and that partly expel from their interior the magnetic field in which they are placed.
