Abstract
The magnetization reversal of thin iron films at 300° and 80°K was observed by means of the Kerr magneto‐optical effect. It was found that the coercive force of a wall increases during the time the wall is fixed in one place of the film. This leads to the conclusion that the dynamics of magnetization reversal is influenced by a Richter‐type aftereffect. A new model of wall motion is proposed.
