Abstract
The previous proof that a highly symmetric ferromagnetic particle cannot be saturated is extended to a case in which the symmetry is broken. The result is practically the same as that for the symmetric case, which must mean that a ferromagnetic particle can never be saturated, so that the magnetization reversal does not have to nucleate via the high energy barrier of a completely saturated sample.
