Interaction effects detected by Fourier analysis of hysteresis loops and initial magnetization curves

A new technique for the estimation of interparticle interaction effects in some magnetic systems is developed only on the basis of Fourier description of experimental hysteresis loops and initial magnetization curves, avoiding remanence measurements. This technique is applied for Ba-ferrite powders and for several currently used magnetic recording media. It is found that the results coincide fairly well with these obtained by the commonly accepted /spl Delta/I technique, using remanence curves. >
