Abstract The phenornenon of hysteresis is perhaps the most widely recognized microscopie manifestation of magnetic ordering, and is the principal feature which is responsible for technologicallysriented applications of magnetic materials such as permanent magnets and recording media Interest in a phenomenological model of hysteresis originally proposed by Preisach in 1935 has been renewed recently, particularly in engineering applications, such as the characterization of magnetic recording media and magnetostrictive materials. Thus, a ngorous assessrnent of the capabilities and limitations of the Preisach model for charactenzing magnetic materials is of considerable importance from both fundamental and technological perspectives. The fundamental characteristics of hysteresis are discussed and a theoretical background for the processes involved in magnetic systems is established. A generalized version of the scalar Preisach model, which includes original contributions, is developed to extend the model's abilities to describe the effects of the structure of the initially demagnetized state, the presence and nature of interactions, the system's coercive field distribution, and especially, the effects of temperature and expenmental wait time, on the observed hysteretic properties of a variety of magnetic systems including spin glasses, ferromagnets, ferrimagnets, and superparamagnets. The moment and remanence of magnetic systems are rneasured as a fùnction of applied fieid and temperature, using both a vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and a SQUID-based magnetometer. A Preisach analysis of the data is used to characterize the irreversible response of six magnetic systems: Crû, audio tape; magnetofemtin; a Nqe,,B permanent magnet; a floppy disk medium; and longitudinal and perpendicular cobdtshromium-based hard disk materials. The ambiguous nature of tools presently used to analyze the nature of magnetic systems, such as the application of Heakel plots to the aoalysis of interaction effects, is demonstrated and alternative Preisach-based analysis schemes are presented. The physical significance of parameters, which emerged from the Preisach calculations, is discussed in detail and modifications are proposed to model this array of real magnetic systerns. These changes to the scalar Preisach model extend its capabilities, while maintainhg the inherent simplicity of a scaiar model. Limitations of the model are also discussed critically, and suggestions for future generaiizations are made. Acknowledgements Special thanks to my thesis advisor Dr. R. M.

Essentially, hysteresis originates from the presence of many local metastable minima in the free energy landscape of the system in configuration space.

Hall University of Manchester May 1999 Ferroelectric Hysteresis Measurement & Analysis M. Stewart & M. G. Cain Centre for Materials Measurement and Technology National Physical Laboratory Teddington, Middlesex, TW11 0LW, UK. D. A. Hall Manchester Materials Science Centre University of Manchester and UMIST Manchester, M1 7HS, UK. Summary It has become increasingly important to characterise the performance of piezoelectric materials under conditions relevant to their application. Piezoelectric materials are being operated at ever increasing stresses, either for high power acoustic generation or high load/stress actuation, for example. Thus, measurements of properties such as, permittivity (capacitance), dielectric loss, and piezoelectric displacement at high driving voltages are required, which can be used either in device design or materials processing to enable the production of an enhanced, more competitive product. Techniques used to measure these properties have been developed during the DTI funded CAM7 programme and this report aims to enable a user to set up one of these facilities, namely a polarisation hysteresis loop measurement system. The report describes the technique, some example hardware implementations, and the software algorithms used to perform the measurements. A version of the software is included which, although does not allow control of experimental equipment, does include all the analysis features and will allow analysis of data captured independently. ã Crown copyright 1999 Reproduced by permission of the Controller of HMSO ISSN 1368-6550 May 1999 National Physical Laboratory Teddington, Middlesex, United Kingdom, TW11 0LW Extracts from this report may be reproduced provided the source is acknowledged.

  • Magnetic Materials: Hysteresis
    Magnetic Materials: Hysteresis Ferromagnetic and ferrimagnetic materials have non-linear initial magnetisation curves (i.e. the dotted lines in figure 7), as the changing magnetisation with applied field is due to a change in the magnetic domain structure. These materials also show hysteresis and the magnetisation does not return to zero after the application of a magnetic field. Figure 7 shows a typical hysteresis loop; the two loops represent the same data, however, the blue loop is the polarisation (J = µoM = B-µoH) and the red loop is the induction, both plotted against the applied field. Figure 7: A typical hysteresis loop for a ferro- or ferri- magnetic material. Illustrated in the first quadrant of the loop is the initial magnetisation curve (dotted line), which shows the increase in polarisation (and induction) on the application of a field to an unmagnetised sample. In the first quadrant the polarisation and applied field are both positive, i.e. they are in the same direction. The polarisation increases initially by the growth of favourably oriented domains, which will be magnetised in the easy direction of the crystal. When the polarisation can increase no further by the growth of domains, the direction of magnetisation of the domains then rotates away from the easy axis to align with the field. When all of the domains have fully aligned with the applied field saturation is reached and the polarisation can increase no further. If the field is removed the polarisation returns along the solid red line to the y-axis (i.e. H=0), and the domains will return to their easy direction of magnetisation, resulting in a decrease in polarisation.

[email protected] This paper presents examples of hysteresis from a broad range of scientific disciplines and demon- strates a variety of forms including clockwise, counterclockwise, butterfly, pinched and kiss-and- go, respectively. These examples include mechanical systems made up of springs and dampers which have been the main components of muscle models for nearly one hundred years. For the first time, as far as the authors are aware, hysteresis is demonstrated in single fibre muscle when subjected to both lengthening and shortening periodic contractions. The hysteresis observed in the experiments is of two forms. Without any relaxation at the end of lengthening or short- ening, the hysteresis loop is a convex clockwise loop, whereas a concave clockwise hysteresis loop (labeled as kiss-and-go) is formed when the muscle is relaxed at the end of lengthening and shortening. This paper also presents a mathematical model which reproduces the hysteresis curves in the same form as the experimental data.

  • Passive Magnetic Attitude Control for Cubesat Spacecraft
    SSC10-XXXX-X Passive Magnetic Attitude Control for CubeSat Spacecraft David T. Gerhardt University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309 Scott E. Palo Advisor, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309 CubeSats are a growing and increasingly valuable asset specifically to the space sciences community. However, due to their small size CubeSats provide limited mass (< 4 kg) and power (typically < 6W insolated) which must be judiciously allocated between bus and instrumentation. There are a class of science missions that have pointing requirements of 10-20 degrees. Passive Magnetic Attitude Control (PMAC) is a wise choice for such a mission class, as it can be used to align a CubeSat within ±10◦ of the earth's magnetic field at a cost of zero power and < 50g mass. One example is the Colorado Student Space Weather Experiment (CSSWE), a 3U CubeSat for space weather investigation. The design of a PMAC system is presented for a general 3U CubeSat with CSSWE as an example. Design aspects considered include: external torques acting on the craft, magnetic parametric resonance for polar orbits, and the effect of hysteresis rod dimensions on dampening supplied by the rod. Next, the development of a PMAC simulation is discussed, including the equations of motion, a model of the earth's magnetic field, and hysteresis rod response. Key steps of the simulation are outlined in sufficient detail to recreate the simulation. Finally, the simulation is used to verify the PMAC system design, finding that CSSWE settles to within 10◦ of magnetic field lines after 6.5 days. Introduction OLUTIONS for satellite attitude control must Sbe weighed by trading system resource allocation against performance.

  • Basic Design and Engineering of Normal-Conducting, Iron-Dominated Electromagnets
    Basic design and engineering of normal-conducting, iron-dominated electromagnets Th. Zickler CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Abstract The intention of this course is to provide guidance and tools necessary to carry out an analytical design of a simple accelerator magnet. Basic concepts and magnet types will be explained as well as important aspects which should be considered before starting the actual design phase. The central part of this course is dedicated to describing how to develop a basic magnet design. Subjects like the layout of the magnetic circuit, the excitation coils, and the cooling circuits will be discussed. A short introduction to materials for the yoke and coil construction and a brief summary about cost estimates for magnets will complete this topic. 1 Introduction The scope of these lectures is to give an overview of electromagnetic technology as used in and around particle accelerators considering normal-conducting, iron-dominated electromagnets generally restricted to direct current situations where we assume that the voltages generated by the change of flux and possible resulting eddy currents are negligible. Permanent and superconducting magnet technologies as well as special magnets like kickers and septa are not covered in this paper; they were part of dedicated special lectures. It is clear that it is difficult to give a complete and exhaustive summary of magnet design since there are many different magnet types and designs; in principle the design of a magnet is limited only by the laws of physics and the imagination of the magnet designer. Furthermore, each laboratory and each magnet designer or engineer has his own style of approaching a particular magnet design.
