AbstractIn this overview paper the concept of thermal activation of magnetisation reversal is reviewed in terms of the Wohlfarth-Gaunt formalism. This formalism gave rise to the concept of an activation volume of reversal. Other techniques have been developed for the determination of activation or critical volumes of reversal and these are reviewed. It is found that these methods give the same approximate value for the activation volume but the only method based on micromagnetism is the waiting time experiment which is consistent with Gaunt. Factors which affect the activation volume such as incoherent reversal and intergranular coupling are discussed together with measures that may be required in order to generate ultrahigh density recording media that are relatively free from thermal loss of signal.
