(A) Magnetization M
When a substance is placed in an external magnetic field,

the substance experiences a torque due to the field
and aligns in the same direction as the field.
The magnetization so produced in the substance

is called Induced magnetization.
It is denoted by the symbol M.
Magnetization in magnetic field is analogues to

polarization of a dielectric material in electrostatic field.
(B) Magnetic Field Intensity H
The magnetic field in "empty" space

is denoted by the symbol B.
It is calculated from
Amperes Law or Biot Savarts Law and
measured in tesla.
However, when the magnetic field passes through

a magnetically responsive material, such as iron,
the material itself contributes its internal magnetic field.
The magnetic field in the presence of

a magnetically responsive material is denoted by
a second quantity H, called as the magnetic field intensity
It is used to characterize the strength of an external field i.e.

the magnetic field due to the external sources
(electric current) only, excluding
the contribution due to materials internal magnetic field.
H is related to B through permeability as

Magnetic field Intensity H is also called

as Magnetizing force or Auxiliary Magnetic field.
H is also expressed in terms of M as follows

H = B/0 - M Or in the equivalent form as
B = 0 (H + M)
H and M have the same units, amperes/meter.
More discussion about M and H is given in

the chapter on Magnetism in Matter.
