The magnetic after-effect in pure iron at elevated temperatures

  • Published:
Il Nuovo Cimento (1955-1965)

Summary

The time decrease in the permeability of pure iron was studied as it occurs in the temperature range 120 °C to 750 °C. Experimental results indicate that the stabilization of the Bloch walls could be due to the movement of dislocations to positions of lower energy in the vicinity of the walls. Satisfactory agreement is obtained between the experimental value for the viscosity field at a given temperature and a value as calculated on the basis of a dislocation model byBiorci, Ferro andMontalenti. The results also indicate that at this temperature the initial magnetization process is virtually entirely due to the movement of 180° walls.

Riassunto

Si è studiata la diminuzione col tempo della permeabilità del ferro puro che si verifica nell’intervallo di temperatura fra 120 °C e 750 °C. I risultati sperimentali indicano che la stabilizzazione delle pareti di Bloch potrebbe essere dovuta al movimento di dislocazioni verso posizioni di minore energia in prossimità delle pareti. Si ottiene un buon accordo fra il valore sperimentale del campo di viscosità ad una data temperatura ed il valore calcolato sulla base del modello di dislocazione diBiorci, Ferro eMontalenti. I risultati indicano anche che a questa temperatura il processo di magnetizzazione iniziale è virtualmente dovuto interamente al moto di pareti a 180°.
