The aim of this book is to provide both an introduction and a state-of-the-art report on research into magnetism and magnetic materials. Particular emphasis has been put on the contribution of synchrotron radiation in relevant experimental investigations. Graduate students and nonspecialists will benefit from the tutorial approach while specialists will find the latest results that round off the material presented in the lectures. TOC:Introduction to Magnetism and Magnetic Materials.- Spectroscopy and Magnetism: an Introduction.- Instrumentation Developments.- Dichroism in X-ray Absorption.- A Photoemission Primer.- Micromagnetics: Dynamical Aspects.- Magnetization Reversal of Nano-particles.- Molecular Magnetism: Design of High Tc Prussian Blue Molecule Based Magnets.- X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism at Low Temperature.- High-Pressure Magnetism and Magnetic Circular Dichroism.- Resonant Inelastic X-ray Scattering.- Some Nuclear Technique in Experimental Magnetism: Mössbauer Effect, Neutron Scattering and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance.- Linear and Non-Linear Magneto-Optical Effects: Magnetism of Thin Film Structures.- Relation Between X-ray Magnetic Linear Dichroism and Magnetocrystalline Anisotropy.- Field Induced Magnetic Circular Dichroism in Paramagnetic Solids.- X-ray Magnetic Circular Dichroism in the Investigation of Magnetisation Dynamics in the Nanosecond Time Scale.
