Abstract

The coefficient of reflection of microwave radiation from a plane layer of a magnetic fluid magnetized in a field of 11.5 Oe is measured in a frequency range of 24 MHz in temperature intervals 293–333 K; the volume concentration of the magnetic phase (magnetite) is 15 vol %. In this range, the dynamic susceptibility of nanoparticles exhibits strong dispersion (ferromagnetic resonance). The experimental results are interpreted on the basis of the theory of high-frequency magnetization for an ensemble of noninteracting isotropic super-paramagnetic particles. It is found that this simple model provides a satisfactory description of the temperature and frequency dependences of the reflection coefficient.
