Definition

In a diamagnetic manner; in a way that shows diamagnetism or repulsion from magnetic fields.

Etymology

From diamagnetic + -ally suffix forming adverbs. Allows description of how materials behave or respond when subjected to magnetic forces.

Kelly Says

Materials respond diamagnetically at the atomic level in ways we're still discovering—graphene and superconductors show diamagnetic effects so strong they can levitate magnets, which sounds like magic but is pure quantum physics.
