intro The Magnetization Dynamics group is a part of the Magnetic Materials and Applied Magnetism Laboratory (MMAML) at the Colorado State University. The laboratory is located in the Department of Physics. Group members work on the front lines of modern day research on magnetic materials and magnetic phenomena, and especially on the linear and nonlinear magnetodynamics and damping in metallic and ferrite magnetic thin films. The various research programs and projects are generally of fundamental interest as well as technological importance for high frequency, radar, and information storage applications. Current funded programs are supported by various government agencies, and private industry.
