Research Connects Nanoparticle Polycrystallinity to Magnetic Vortex Descriptors

A new paper accepted in Physical Review Research introduces analytical vortex models that simplify polarized magnetic small-angle neutron scattering data from nanoparticle ensembles. This work establishes a link between polycrystallinity in magnetic iron oxide nanoflowers and specific remanent texture descriptors, offering new insights into intraparticle disorder.
