Origin of the technique

[edit]

Amikam Aharoni says in his book, (ISBN 9780198517917), that the technique was first suggested by Arrott orally at a conference without proceedings, and then in this unpublished General Electric report:

  • Kouvel, J.S. (September 1957). Methods for Determining the Curie Temperature of a Ferromagnet (Report). General Electric Research Laboratory Report No. 57-RL-1799.

On the other hand, the author of this report, Kouvel, said in a journal article (doi:10.1103/PhysRev.136.A1626) that it was "first proposed by Belov and Goryaga, and later independently by one of us [cites the GE report above]".

I haven't been able to track down either citation; the early history is a bit murky. 〈 Forbes72 | Talk 〉 00:39, 10 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
