Abstract
Nonmagnetic particles in magnetized ferrofluids have been denoted magnetic holes and are in many ways ideal model systems to test various forms of particle self assembly and dynamics. Some case studies to be reviewed here include: Chaining of magnetic holes Braid theory and Zipf relation used in dynamics of magnetic microparticles Interactions of magnetic holes in ferrofluid layers The objectives of these works have been to find simple characterizations of complex behavior of particles with dipolar interactions.
