| contents | The uniform states of a model for one-dimensional chains of thin magnetic islands on a nonmagnetic substrate coupled via dipolar interactions are described here. Magnetic islands oriented with their long axes perpendicular to the chain direction are assumed, whose shape anisotropy imposes a preference for the dipoles to point perpendicular to the chain. The competition between anisotropy and dipolar interactions leads to three types of uniform states of distinctly different symmetries, including metastable transverse or remanent states, transverse antiferromagnetic states, and longitudinal states where all dipoles align with the chain direction. The stability limits and normal modes of oscillation are found for all three types of states, even including infinite range dipole interactions. The normal mode frequencies are shown to be determined from the eigenvalues of the stability problem. |
