The word may refer to: In physics, the susceptibility of a material or substance describes its response to an applied field. For example: Magnetic susceptibility Electric susceptibility The two types of susceptibility above are examples of a linear response function; sometimes the terms susceptibility and linear response function are used interchangeably. In electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), susceptibility is the sensitivity of a device's function to incoming electromagnetic interference
