The 178th Topical Symposium of the Magnetics Society of Japan

History and future prospects of magnetics

Research and development in magnetics are making remarkable advance in aspects of fundamental physics and various applications. For example the phenomena theoretically proposed some decades ago are demonstrated with recent nano-technology. Past technology revives with a different shape or in unexpected fields. This symposium provides an opportunity to introduce future prospects in variety of magnetic research with historical view point. We are very much looking forward to your participation and getting hints for your works.
