Abstract :
We investigate dc track edge interactions by placing edges at close spacings and observing the output through head readback and magnetic force microscopy. We find a correlation between the onset of edge interaction and the recording medium coercivity. Readback experiments display a region of edge interaction that results in linear noise power variation; microscopy imaging supports this conclusion
