Power loss for a periodically driven ferromagnetic nanoparticle in a viscous fluid: The finite anisotropy aspects

The coupled magnetic and mechanical motion of a ferromagnetic nanoparticle in a viscous fluid is considered within the dynamical approach. The equation based on the total momentum conservation law is used for the description of the mechanical rotation, while the modified Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation is utilized for the description of the internal magnetic dynamics. The exact expressions for the particles trajectories and the power loss are obtained in the linear approximation. The comparison with the results of other widespread approaches, such as the model of fixed particle and the model of rigid dipole, is performed. It is established that in the small oscillations mode the damping precession of the nanoparticle magnetic moment is the main channel of energy dissipation, but the motion of the nanoparticle easy axis can significantly influence the value of the resulting power loss.
