We consider a single-domain ferromagnetic particle with uniaxial anisotropy coupled to a single-domain soft ferromagnetic particle (superparamagnetic particle). The problem of thermally agitated magnetization reversal in this case can be…
We study the dynamics of a plasma of charged relativistic fermions at very high temperature $T\gg m$, where $m$ is the fermion mass, coupled to the electromagnetic field. In particular, we derive a magneto-hydrodynamical description of the…
