The Handbook of Magnetic Materials has a dual purpose; as a
textbook, it provides an introduction to a given topic within
magnetism, and as a work of reference, it serves scientists
active in magnetism research. To fulfill these two goals, each
chapter in the Handbook is written by leading authorities in the
field, and combines state-of-the-art research results with an
extensive compilation of archival knowledge.
Magnetism is a rapidly expanding field which constantly continues
to encompass new phenomena. Examples of such subfields of
magnetism are quadrupolar interactions, magnetic superconductors,
and quasiscrystals: topics that are all covered in the present
volume. The only common ground between these new materials and
ferromagnets, is the possession of a magnetic moment; the series
title has been slightly adjusted to reflect this. But in keeping
with tradition, the Handbook of Magnetic Materials continues to
allow readers to acquaint themselves in great depth with topics
through the entire breadth of magnetism research.
