An integrated summary is given of some of the results and physical ideas contained in 16 experimentaland theoretical papers on ferromagnetic resonance contributed to the 1960 Conference on Magnetism andMagnetic Materials. The topics discussed include the uniform mode and anisotropy, nonuniform magnetostaticand electromagnetic modes, spin-wave resonance, sublattice effects, paramagnetic “impurities,”spin-wave scattering, rapidly relaxing ions, determination of spin-wave transition probabilities, thermalrelaxation, and the theory and use of the “parallel pump” method for measuring relaxation and exchangeparameters. Although a complete review of ferromagnetic resonance is not intended, the emphasis is on anorganization of this field and on the introductory and explanatory material presented with each topic.
