Analytic solutions of the modified Langevin equation in a mean-field model


Abstract in English

Approximate analytical solutions of the modified Langevin equation are obtained. These solutions are relatively simple and enough accurate. They are illustrated by considering a mean-field model of a system with interacting superparamagnetic particles. Within the framework of this model system we derived analytical approximate formulas for the temperature dependencies of the saturation and remnant magnetization, coercive force, initial magnetic susceptibility as well as for the law of approach to saturation. We obtained also some exact analytical relationships for the coercive force. We found remarkable similarity between the approximate cubic equation, which is resulted from the modified Langevin equation, and the exact equation resulting from the divergence condition of a solution derivative. The analytical formulas obtained in this work can be used in various models (not only magnetic ones), where the modified Langevin equation is applied.
