ABSTRACT

Investigation of magnetothermal phenomena in magnetic materials is of great importance for solving fundamental problems of magnetism and solid state physics, as well as for technological applications. These phenomena have a strong influence on such physical values as entropy, heat capacity and thermal conductivity, and reflects by itself transformations taking place in spin structure of a magnetic material. This book presents an attempt to give an overview of theoretical and experimental investigations and also technological applications of the phenomena made by the authors with more than 20 years’ experience in this field.
