Description

This article gives a microscopic description of magnetism in the Fe group, based on tetratomic spin-polarized Jahn-Teller resonance states. Ferromagnetism is due to Hund's-rule intra-atomic exchange coupling between molecular magnetic states having a common atom. Magnetic anisotropy is determined by the molecular symmetry axis of the resonance state
