A theoretical model of single-domain (SD) grain sizes is applied to magnetite and titanomagnetite. In this model, transition to a two-domain configuration takes place at the SD threshold d0. This two-domain configuration is shown to be more applicable to fine-grained magnetites in igneous rocks than previous models involving transition to a circular spin configuration at d0. Calculations of the stable SD grain size range were accomplished by calculating the superparamagnetic threshold size ds… Expand
