This lecture introduces ferromagnetism as the simplest form of magnetic order, where all moments align in one direction, leading to the formation of domains and domain walls. The instructor explains the differences between block walls and nail walls, the concept of remnant magnetization, coercive field, and the Barkhausen effect, which involves the movement of domain walls in response to changes in the magnetic field.
