An ab initio study of the magnetic properties of strontium hexaferrite
Abstract The magnetic properties of $${\text{SrFe}}_{12}{\text{O}}_{19}$$ SrFe 12 O 19 , a paradigmatic hexaferrite for permanent magnet applications, have been addressed in detail combining density functional theory including spin–orbit coupling and a Hubbard U term with Monte Carlo simulations.
