Books in the Cambridge Studies in Magnetism series

This book, first published in 1997, is a comprehensive treatment of fine particle magnetism and the magnetic properties of rocks. It will be of value to graduate students and researchers in geophysics and geology, particularly in paleomagnetism and rock magnetism, as well as physicists and electrical engineers interested in fine-particle magnetism and magnetic recording.

This book gives a comprehensive account of the subject, and will provide a valuable overview and reference to both newcomers and experts in the field. The authors discuss the most important developments in the theory, experimental work and computer modelling of spin glasses.

This book presents theory and experiments in the field of macroscopic tunneling of the magnetic moment.

The behaviour of magnetic impurities in metals has posed problems to challenge the condensed matter theorist over the past 30 years. This book deals with the concepts and techniques which have been developed to meet this challenge, and will be of interest to condensed matter physicists, particularly those interested in strong correlation problems.
