Graphical Magnetogranulometry — •Ingo Rehberg, Reinhard Richter, and Stefan Hartung — Bayreuth University

The dipole strength of magnetic particles in a colloidal suspension can be obtained by a graphical rectification of the magnetization curves based on the inverse Langevin function. The method [1] yields the arithmetic and the harmonic mean of the particle distribution. It has an advantage compared to the fitting of magnetization curves to some appropriate mathematical model: It does not rely on assuming a particular distribution function of the particles.
