Many magnetic particles consist of two or more magnetic domains, each of uniform magnetization separated by narrow zones called domain walls, in which the spins change orientation from one domain to the next. NRM (natural remanent magnetization): The magnetic moment (per unit volume of per unit mass) acquired by a rock in nature.

However, in the 1970s and 1980s the widespread use of hysteresis parameters to characterize magnetic mineralogy found that the majority of magnetic particles in rocks are not in uniform magnetic states, but are larger in size (80–1,000 nm) and contain complex magnetic states that are not described by either SD theory or the …
Thermal Fluctuations of a Single-Domain Particle. J. W. Brown. Physics. 1963. A sufficiently fine ferromagnetic particle has a uniform vector magnetization whose magnitude is essentially constant, but whose direction fluctuates because of thermal agitation. The fluctuations….

Such aggregates constitute the basic unit of which the solid Earth is composed and typically form recognizable and mappable volumes. Rocks are commonly divided into three major classes according to the processes that resulted in their formation. These …
Nanosize particles of SrFe12O19 have been synthesized by a citrate precursor technique with various Fe/Sr ratios of 12.0 to 9.0. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies showed the formation of ultrafine, monophasic SrFe12O19 particles with comparable unit cell parameters. Magnetic clusters were observed by scanning electron microscopy and …

Description. Since the pioneering work of Stoner and Wohlfarth over six decades ago, the subject of magnetic behavior of single- (mono)domain particles has held enormous fascination. Magnetization reversal in such monodomain particles occurs often via coherent rotation of spins. As a consequence of this rotation mechanism, magnetic ...

1 Introduction. More than 55 years have passed since Stacey (1961, 1962) coined the term "pseudo-single domain" (PSD) to describe a transitional magnetic state between the stable single domain (SD) and multidomain (MD) states.SD particles are uniformly magnetized; when they occur above the lower threshold size at which they …
[1] The critical size for stable single-domain (SD) behavior has been calculated as a function of grain elongation for magnetite grains using a numerical micromagnetic algorithm. Importantly, for the first time, we consider the contribution of intergrain magnetostatic interactions on the SD/multidomain (MD) critical size (d0). For …

From experiments it is known that magnetostatic interactions between grains strongly affect the magnetic behavior of samples. However, because of the difficulty in predicting the nonlinear behavior, the effect of interactions has been largely ignored from theoretical models. Instead models are often based on noninteracting assemblages. This …

The predicted magnetic properties exhibit good agreement with experimental observations and suggest that the domain arrangement is likely to be dominated by a core-shell structure with strong exchange coupling at their interface. Overall, the partially oxidized magnetite in SD-PSD range can reliably record palaeomagnetic signals.
Using a three-dimensional micromagnetic model, we have conducted a detailed study of the role of magnetostatic interactions on the magnetic properties of assemblages of ideal single domain (SD) grains and cubic grains between 30–250 nm in size. We quantify the contribution of interactions to hysteresis parameters and the Day plot.
