Identification of the mineral remains of magnetotactic bacteria (MTB), known as
magnetofossils, is of particular interest because their occurrence can be used for …

First‐order reversal curve (FORC) diagrams have become a standard tool in rock
magnetism, yet magnetite is the only magnetic mineral that is well characterized using …

Diagenetic alteration of magnetic minerals occurs in all sedimentary environments and
tends to be severe in reducing environments. Magnetic minerals provide useful information …

Magnetic fine particles find a large number of applications, perhaps most notably as
particulate recording media. In addition, the ideas of fine particle magnetism are applicable …

The thermomagnetic behavior of remanence‐induced magnetite (Fe3O4) particles in the
pseudo‐single‐domain (PSD) size range (~ 0.1–10 µm), which dominate the magnetic …

Superparamagnetic grains, ultrafine (< 50 nm) particles that do not retain a magnetic
remanence at room temperature, can form through several biogeochemical pathways in …

Magnetic data are sensitive to both the induced magnetization in rock units caused by the
present earth's magnetic field and the remanent magnetization acquired by rock units in past …

Remanence magnetization plots (eg, Henkel or δM plots) have been extensively used as a
straightforward way to determine the presence and intensity of dipolar and exchange …

This report describes a system designed to separate magnetic particles from fine-grained
sediment or pulverized rock. The device is fashioned crudely after the separator described …

Sedimentary magnetizations are fundamental to palaeomagnetism, but the mechanisms that
control remanence acquisition remain poorly constrained. Observed sedimentary natural …
