Magnetism in solids

The experimental methods employed for the study of magnetism in solids are here generally described. Emphasis is given to the relevance of these methods for actinide solids. Therefore, the theory which is used in connection with the experiments is analyzed in some detail.

This table was derived from empirical data on conductivity and magnetism in solids. The shaded area maps the first order Mott transition between localised and itinerant behaviour in the solid, and the elements which lie on it have sensitive (e.g. pressure-dependent) properties. However, they are also remarkable in atomic physics for their giant resonances, are noted catalysts, or provide good materials for H storage, and then exhibit photon-stimulated desorption peaks which replicate the giant resonance profiles. Many of these properties seem to depend on the critical localisation of / and d electrons. 

In 1925 Ising [14] suggested (but solved only for the relatively trivial case of one dimension) a lattice model for magnetism in solids that has proved to have applicability to a wide variety of other, but similar, situations. The mathematical solutions, or rather attempts at solution, have made the Ising model one of the most famous problems in classical statistical mechanics.
