Abstract:
Experiments show that clusters consisting of nano-sized ferromagnetic particles strongly affect the intensity of heat production during magnetic hyperthermia. In this paper, a theoretical study and mathematical modelling of the heat production by clusters of single-domain ferromagnetic particles, immobilized in a host medium, are presented. Two situations of strong and weak magnetic anisotropy of the particles are considered. Our results show that, in the case of strong anisotropy, the clusterization weakens the thermal effect, whereas in the case of weak anisotropy it enhances it. This article is part of the theme issue 'Patterns in soft and biological matters'.

Magnetic Susceptibility and Permeability
When diamagnetic materials are placed under an external magnetic field, the moments opposite to the field are induced. Hence, the susceptibility for diamagnets has a minimal negative value of 10-5–10-6. Since...
