Statistical mechanics of itinerant-electron magnets

The transition metal iron is the archetypal magnetic material. However some aspects of its magnetic behaviour are still not fully understood. The conceptual difficulty is that, while unpaired electrons responsible for magnetism in an insulator are localised on the atomic sites, in a metal they have...
