Abstract
It is shown that gradual devitrifiation of non-magnetostrictive Go-based me tallic glass leads to a giant, five orders of magnitude, increase of its co ercivity. This magnetic hardening is due to the pinning of domain walls by growing fine crystallites much smaller than the domain wall width, the numb er and size of which increase with an increase of the annealing temperature .
