On the critical dynamics of ferromagnets

The dynamic scaling functions for ferromagnets above and below the
critical temperature are determined using mode coupling theory.
Below the critical temperature we study isotropic ferromagnets
taking into account the exchange interaction only and give the
first numerical solution of the resulting mode coupling equations.
In the paramagnetic phase we examine how the critical dynamics is
modified by the addition of the dipoledipole interaction. On the
basis of this theory we are able to explain in a unifying fashion
the results of different experimental methods; i.e.: neutron
scattering, hyperfine interaction and electron-spin resonance.
Predictions for new experiments are made.
