The natural remanent magnetisation of a crystal of South Norwegian hemoilmenite rock has been studied using neutron scattering to obtain knowledge on the sample’s origin-deposit’s contribution to magnetic anomalies of the Earth’s magnetic field. The sample consists of an ilmenite host (paramagnetic) with exsolution lamellae of hematite (canted antiferromagnetic), thereby having a large area of ...

First-order reversal curve (FORC) diagrams are constructed from a class of partial magnetic hysteresis loops known as first-order reversal curves and are used to understand magnetization processes in fine magnetic particle systems. A wide-ranging literature that is pertinent to interpretation of FORC diagrams has been published in the geophysical and solid-state physics literature over the past...

In order to establish the magnetic carriers and assess the reliability of previous paleomagnetic results obtained for Eocene marine marls from the south Pyrenean basin, we carried out a combined paleoand rock-magnetic study of the Pamplona-Arguis Formation, which crops out in the western sector of the southern Pyrenees (N Spain). The unblocking temperatures suggest that the characteristic reman...
