What is residual magnetisim?

It depends on the context in which you are referring to it, but basically Residual Magnetism is that magnetism remaining in the core of an electromagnet after the coil current is removed. In the widest use of the term, it could be used to refer to that magnetism left in a magnetically susceptible substance when it cools past its Curie point, (paleomagnetism is an example of this).
