The response of the magnetic moment to a magnetic field boosts the response of the coil wrapped around it. Low coercivity reduces that energy loss associated with hysteresis. Magnetic hysteresis material (soft nickel-iron rods) has been used in damping the angular motion of satellites in low Earth orbit since the dawn of the space age. [5]
In an ordinary magnetic hysteresis measurement, h starts at a large positive value and is decreased to a large negative value. The magnetization direction starts on the blue curve. At h = 0.5 the red curve appears, but for h > 0 the blue state has a lower energy because it is closer to the direction of the magnetic field. When the field becomes ...
This is one of the most popular models of magnetic hysteresis. Its main advantage is the fact that this model enables connection with physical parameters of the magnetic material. [2] Jiles–Atherton model enables calculation of minor and major hysteresis loops. [1] The original Jiles–Atherton model is suitable only for isotropic materials. [1]
Calculated magnetization curve for a superconducting slab, based on Bean's model. The superconducting slab is initially at H = 0. Increasing H to critical field H* causes the blue curve; dropping H back to 0 and reversing direction to increase it to -H* causes the green curve; dropping H back to 0 again and increase H to H* causes the orange curve.
Figure 1: The ideal magnetic hysteresis loop of an exchange spring magnet (dashed), as well as the hysteresis loops of its isolated hard (Blue) and soft (Red) components. H is the applied external magnetic field, M is the total magnetic flux density of the material.
Typically the coercivity of a magnetic material is determined by measurement of the magnetic hysteresis loop, also called the magnetization curve, as illustrated in the figure above. The apparatus used to acquire the data is typically a vibrating-sample or alternating-gradient magnetometer. The applied field where the data line crosses zero is ...
A sample of iron, for example, may have evenly distributed magnetic domains, resulting in a net magnetic moment of zero. Mathematically similar models seem to have been independently developed in other fields of science and engineering. One notable example is the model of capillary hysteresis in porous materials developed by Everett and co ...
The curves form a hysteresis loop. Hysteresis is the dependence of the state of a system on its history. For example, a magnet may have more than one possible magnetic moment in a given magnetic field, depending on how the field changed in the past. Plots of a single component of the moment often form a loop or hysteresis curve, where there are ...
