Levitation and motion of a magnet partially immersed into a magnetic fluid

The levitation of a permanent disc magnet partially immersed into a magnetic fluid volume on a horizontal plane is studied theoretically and experimentally. Motion of the magnet along a thin magnetic fluid layer is investigated experimentally. A mathematical model of the magnet dynamics is proposed.
