Abstract
The results of micromagnetic simulations which investigate the role of edge roughness in the switching behaviour of micrometer-scale permalloy rings is presented and show that the change in behaviour observed in thin elements can be explained by the effect the roughness has on the local spin dynamics of the ring.
