Phys. Rev. 67, 351–357 (1945)Demagnetizing Factors of the General EllipsoidReceived 24 March 1945; published in the issue dated June 1945 Charts and tables of the demagnetizing factors of prolate and oblate spheroids are readily available; however, demagnetizing factors of ellipsoids of three different axes are incompletely tabulated and laborious to calculate. This article presents charts and tables which make possible easy determination of the demagnetizing factor for any principal axis of an ellipsoid of any shape. Formulas for the demagnetizing factors of the general ellipsoid are included together with supplementary formulas which cover a large number of special cases. © 1945 The American Physical Society URL:
