A system and a method are described herein for demagnetizing a region of a magnetic structure. In one embodiment, the system comprises: (a) a pulsed magnetizer; and (b) at least one magnetizing coil that receives a sequence of discrete current with continually decreasing current values from the pulsed magnetizer and outputs a sequence of discrete magnetizing fields with continually decreasing field strengths to overwrite and at least partly demagnetize the region of the magnetic structure. The at least one magnetizing coil is located adjacent to the region of the magnetic structure.

The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one magnetizing coil receives the sequence of discrete current pulses with continually decreasing current values from the pulsed magnetizer and outputs the sequence of discrete magnetizing fields with the continually decreasing field strengths and alternating polarities to at least partly demagnetize the region of the magnetic structure. 3. The system of claim 1, wherein the at least one magnetizing coil receives the sequence of discrete current pulses with continually decreasing current values from the pulsed magnetizer and outputs a first portion of the sequence of discrete magnetizing fields with the continually decreasing field strengths and a first polarity and then outputs a second portion of the sequence of discrete magnetizing fields with the continually decreasing field strengths and a second polarity to overwrite and at least partly demagnetize the region of the magnetic structure. 4. The system of claim 1, wherein the first magnetic source comprises at least one maxel having the first polarity. 5. The system of claim 4, wherein each maxel has a size, shape, depth, polarity, field strength, and angle relative to the surface of the magnetic structure. 6.
