Reduced vortex descriptors linking polycrystallinity in magnetic nanoparticles with polarized magnetic small-angle neutron scattering

M. P. Adams, J. Leliaert, A. Michels +1

Analytical vortex models reduce polarized magnetic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) from nanoparticle ensembles to a small set of texture descriptors. In this work, we apply t…
