Abstract
SINCE the discovery of permalloy in 19231 the problem of explaining the very high permeability observed with 78 per cent nickel and the special heat treatment (permalloy heat treatment) leading to these high values, has raised a good deal of discussion2 and many ad hoc hypotheses have been put forward3,4,5.
