Summary
| Description |
English: Spin glass can result when atoms interact with conduction electrons. Here we have a schematic diagram of 4 electron waves scattered by 4 magnetic atoms far apart. Each atom is at the center of a succession of concentric spheres of decaying waves. The electrons mediate the interactions among the atoms, whose poles can flip because of the influence of other atoms and the surrounding electrons.
