Volume 13 of the Handbook of Magnetic Materials, as the preceding
volumes, has a dual purpose. As a textbook it is intended to be of
assistance to those who wish to be introduced to a given topic in
the field of magnetism without the need to read the vast amount of
literature published. As a work of reference it is intended for
scientists active in magnetism research. To this dual purpose,
Volume 13 of the Handbook is composed of topical review articles
written by leading authorities. In each of these articles an
extensive description is given in graphical as well as in tabular
form, much emphasis being placed on the discussion of the
experimental material in the framework of physics, chemistry and
material science. In Chapter 1 of this volume a general review of
the experimental work on interlayer exchange coupling is presented
along with a discussion of the current understanding of this field.
There exists an extensive amount of scientific efforts devoted to
4f and 5f systems, including experimental and theoretical, as well
as basic and applied research. Chapter 2 aims at reviewing a part
of these efforts from the viewpoint of microscopic theory. Special
attention is paid to the many new developments in the field. One of
the intentions is to bring to the fore the darker areas of DFT
theory applications. A review of novel experimental results and
first-principle energy-band calculations of MOKE spectra will be
presented in Chapter 3. Conventional co-operative phenomena, such
as long-range order and elementary excitation, have realisations in
nonmagnetic situations. This applies also to the phenomena of
geometrical frustration. In Chapter 4 this topic is addressed by
developing the basic principles underlying the magnetic phenomena.
