Thermal Heat Dance of Magnetic Domains

Caption

The image shows the areas where the borders of magnetic domains accumulate over time. It is similar to a photo of a traffic intersection taken at night with a long exposure time. In such a photo, we would see brighter areas along the paths that most cars' headlights traveled. Here we see brighter areas where most domain walls come together.
