摘要
For ferrofluids that are described by a system of hard spheres interacting via dipolar forces we evaluate the magnetization as a function of the internal magnetic field with a Born-Mayer technique and an expansion in the dipolar coupling strength. Two different approximations are presented for the magnetization, considering different contributions to a series expansion in terms of the volume fraction of the particles and the dipolar coupling strength.
