AbstractThe perovskite (La0.2Nd0.8)0.67Pb0.33MnO3 (LNPMO) with a Curie temperature TC=220K has been characterized by measuring the zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) moments over wide range of temperature 2K < T < 290K in an applied field of Ha = 3978.87 A/m, and also by the major hysteresis loop over the field range Ha $\leq$1061kA/m at T=10K. The data analysed within the framework of a generalized Preisach model, which includes thermal fluctuations, critical effects, and a temperature-dependent distribution of free energy barriers. The analysis shows that the response function of LNPMO is dominated by the growth of the anisotropy barriers.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
