✦ Synopsis
The analysis of ferromagnetic nanowires is a new and vivid field of research. Micromagnetic simulations based on the finite-element method are being used to gain an insight into the dynamics of the reversal process of such wires. Two different types of reversal modes occur, depending on the wire thickness. While in thin wires a simple domain wall nucleates and propagates along the wire axis, the reversal of thick wires is achieved via a localized curling mode. The latter mode involves the injection and propagation of a micromagnetic singularity (Bloch point). The transition between the different modes is observed in a cone-shaped wire with linearly varying thickness.

## Abstract The magnetic behaviour of ordered arrays of magnetic nanowires is controlled by the combined action of anisotropy energy terms determined by geometrical shape, crystalline structure and magnetostriction, as well as by the magnetostatic interactions among them. A number of works have bee
It was found that the mixed lanthanide orthochromate La 0.5 Pr 0.5 CrO 3 exhibits large negative magnetization when its magnetization+temperature (M+T ) curves are measured in a FC (5eld-cooled) mode with low applied 5elds (:5000 Oe). The compound shows a canted-antiferromagnetic transition at &261
