Abstract
A numerical micromagnetic model has been used to analyze equilibrium and reversal modes. For small Cobalt fine particles, the magnetization rotated quasi-coherently ; for intermediate sized particles, the magnetization reversed in a quasi-curling mode ; and for larger particles, the magnetization was multidomain, and columnar switching was observed.
