Step 1. Gauss's law for magnetism states that the surface integral of the magnetic field over any closed surface is always exactly zero: ∮B⃗⋅dA⃗=0\displaystyle\oint\vec B\cdot d\vec A=0.

Step 2. This holds true for every possible closed surface, regardless of its shape or size, or what is inside it.

Step 3. Physically, this means magnetic field lines never begin or end anywhere in space -- they always form continuous closed loops. …
