Thermal fluctuation of fine ferromagnetic particles
Abstract
Fine ferromagnetic particles jump spontaneously from one locally stable state to another; they surmount intervening energy bartiers with the aid of thermal agitation. A theory of this phenomenon has as its primary goal the calculation of time constants. The elements of such a theory are presented. The emphasis is on calculations that require only elementary methods and on results that are simple enough to be easily applicable. The reader is assumed to be acquainted with the basic properties of ferromagnetic materials but not necessarily with Brownian-motion theory, on which the present theory is based.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
