Summary

Aimed primarily at experimental chemists, physicists, electronic engineers and material scientists interested in particulate and granular magnetic materials, this textbook is the culmination of over 40 years’ research into the subject.

The text is divided into two parts. Part One covers the basic physics of magnetism from a relatively low level, including an explanation of some of the unusual terminology in magnetism such as the idea of poles and flux, whose origins are little underst…

What They're Saying

Critics Review

Both a topical and established subject that is fundamental to the fabrication and development of a wide range of existing and emerging engineering devices. * David Cardwell, University of Cambridge *
A high quality text for the physics and many technological applications of magnetism. * E. Dan Dahlberg, University of Minnesota *
This recently published book on the subject of fine particle and thin film magnetism provides both a clear description of the fundamentals of the subject and a number of key technological applications. * Thomas Thomson, IEEE Magnetics Society Newsletter *

About The Author

Dr Gonzalo Vallejo Fernandez

Kevin O’Grady is an internationally recognized expert in magnetic materials and magnetisation reversal processes. He has authored over 300 refereed works on the subject. He is a former President of the IEEE Magnetics Society and founded Liquids Research Ltd., a company in North Wales that manufactures Ferrofluids and other magnetic liquids.

Gonzalo Vallejo Fernández earned an undergraduate degree in physics from the University of Oviedo in 2002 and a PhD in magnetism from the University of York in 2007. Following a two-year postdoctoral position at York, he moved to the University of Glasgow as a Research Fellow. In 2010, he returned to York and joined the Department of Physics as a Lecturer/Assistant Professor in 2012. He is currently a Senior Lecturer/Associate Professor in the School of Physics, Engineering and Technology at the University of York.

Atsufumi Hirohata received his BSc and MSc degrees in physics from Keio University, Japan, in 1995 and 1997, respectively. He obtained his PhD in physics from the University of Cambridge in 2001. He then worked as a Postdoctoral Associate at the Francis Bitter Magnet Laboratory in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in 2002. Subsequently, he became a Researcher at the Department of Materials in Tohoku University, Japan (2003) and at the Frontier Research System in RIKEN, Japan (2005). In 2007, he became a Lecturer in the Department of Electronics at the University of York.
