Fundamentals of Magnetism

by Mathias Getzlaff (Author)

Synopsis

The first part of this state-of-the-art book conveys the fundamentals of magnetism for atoms and bulk-like solid-state systems, providing a basis for understanding new phenomena which exclusively occur in low-dimensional systems as the giant magneto resistance. This wide field is discussed in the second part. Suitable for graduate students in physical and materials sciences, the book includes numerous examples, exercises, and references.

Media Reviews

From the reviews:

This book, like Belgium, is divided into two parts ... . In the first part ... the fundamentals of magnetism are developed at the level of a course for a masters degree in physics. In the second part ... many different aspects of magnetism in reduced dimensions are discussed. ... typical senior physics students will find in this book an excellent introduction to the field. ... In conclusion, this book is a good textbook for a magnetism course for physics students. (Fernande Grandjean and Gary J. Long, Physicalia Magazine, Vol. 30 (4), 2008)
