We describe the self-assembly in magnetic nanocolloids by using a dipolar hard sphere (DHS) model. The phase diagram of this system at low temperature remains debatable regardless the expected simplicity of the model. At low temperature DHS particles self-assemble into complex structures, with primary structures composed by rings and chains. The latter form the building blocks for further aggregation. To elucidate the formation of branched structures analytically, we need to calculate accurately partition functions of various clusters. For that we introduce grand-canonical single cluster Monte Carlo simulations.
