Abstract
The ability of certain materials to acquire a large, permanent magnetic moment is of great importance in industry and engineering. The many and varied applications of magnetic properties range from the use of iron in the compass to the ferrite magnets in television sets, memory cores in computers, and particle accelerators used in nuclear research. Magnetic materials are essential for the operation of generators, transformers, and electric motors used in the production, distribution, and varied applications of electricity, and for a variety of electromagnetic devices such as relays, loading coils, loud speakers, telephone receivers, devices for switching and many others.
