The differential transversal susceptibility as a function of an extern
al magnetic field was measured for several directions of the magnetic
field with respect to the anisotropy axis. Both the anisotropy field a
nd coercive field were determined by analyzing the symmetry properties
of the susceptibility field dependence. The Stoner-Wohlfarth model wa
s modified by introducing an internal field and used to fit the experi
mental data. The hyperbolic parts of susceptibility curves correspondi
ng to single domain states were well reproduced by fitting the appropr
iate constant value of the internal field.
