Abstract
In Chapter 2 we presented an introduction to magnetism, but the discussion was mostly concerned with insulators. The behavior of electrons in a metal is quite different from that in an insulator; in the metal an electron outside of the closed shell of an atom can move around the entire volume, but in the insulator such a free motion of an electron is not possible. Correspondingly, the magnetic properties of a metal are quite different from that of an insulator. In this chapter we present an introduction to magnetism of metals. For a more extensive introduction, see, for instance, Refs. [3.1–3.4]. See also, Refs. [1.4, 1.6, 2.4–2.9, 2.13].
