**Meet the editor**

Dr. Neeraj Panwar, born in town of Ailum of Uttar Pradesh province of India, obtained his Doctorate degree in Physics from Indian Institute of Technology Delhi India. Subsequently, he obtained several years of Post Doctoral research experience from the University of Puerto Rico, U.S.A. and the University of Aveiro, Portugal. Dr. Panwar joined the current job as an Assistant

Professor of Physics in 2013 at the Central University of Rajasthan India. He is supervising three Ph.D. students for their thesis and has guided many Masters students for their dissertation. He has several ongoing research projects funded by different agencies in India. He has published sixty research papers in internationally peer reviewed journals. His research area includes magnetism, multiferroics and piezoelectrics.

The research in the field of magnetism especially on the magnetic materials has been mov‐ ing forward by leaps and bounds over the last several decades. This includes research on nanowires thin films, alloys, and ceramics. A need is felt for a single place where one can find the latest update about the ongoing research in magnetism. Through this book, some relevant research work pertaining to magnetism and magnetic materials has been ad‐ dressed. The first chapter of the book is a glimpse of history of magnetism. The next two chapters elaborate the work on magnetic nanowires and nanoscale magnetic domain memo‐ ry in ferromagnetic thin films. Chapter four delineates magnetic and magneto-transport properties of Heusler alloys. Chapter five is about the research on magnetic characterization of alloys with high entropy.
