Abstract

The relaxation and hysteresis of a periodically forced Swift-Hohenberg (SH) equation as a phenomenological model for the magnetic domains of a garnet thin film in an oscillating magnetic field are studied. It is already known that the unforced SH equation settles down to as ingle type of spatial structure called as tripe pattern, and that the relaxation process yields a scaling law for the structure factor. Two types of temporally oscillating spatial structure consisting of stripe and polka-dot patterns have also been asymptotically observed in the case of a periodically forced SH equation. Relaxation scaling behaviors are studied for these two patterns. It is also shown for the forced case that a hysteresis is observed in the vicinity of the boundary between two different spatial patterns in the phase diagram. Subject Index: 051
