    摘要: A magnetic tape has a magnetic layer containing ferromagnetic powder and binder on a nonmagnetic support. The magnetic layer contains a fatty acid ester. The full width at half maximum of the spacing distribution as measured by optical interferometry on the magnetic layer side surface of the magnetic tape before vacuum heating the magnetic tape is greater than 0 nm but less than or equal to 5.0 nm. The full width at half maximum of the spacing distribution after vacuum heating the magnetic tape is greater than 0 nm but less than or equal to 5.0 nm. The difference between the spacing Safter after vacuum heating the magnetic tape and the spacing Sbefore before vacuum heating the magnetic tape, Safter−Sbefore, is greater than 0 nm but less than or equal to 8.0 nm.

    摘要: A magnetic tape is provided in which the total thickness of a non-magnetic layer and a magnetic layer is equal to or smaller than 0.60 μm. The magnetic layer includes a timing-based servo pattern and also includes fatty acid ester. The full width at half maximum of spacing distribution measured by optical interferometry regarding the surface of the magnetic layer before performing vacuum heating with respect to the magnetic tape is greater than 0 nm and less than or equal to 7.0 nm, while the same value measured after performing the vacuum heating is also greater than 0 nm and less than or equal to 7.0 nm. Further, the difference between a spacing measured after performing the vacuum heating and a spacing measured before performing the vacuum heating is greater than 0 nm and equal to or smaller than 8.0 nm.

    摘要: A magnetic recording medium including a magnetic layer including a ferromagnetic powder. The ferromagnetic powder is an ε-iron oxide powder, and a ratio of Hr (45°) to Hr (0°) (Hr (45°)/Hr (0°)) is 0.50 or less. The Hr (0°) is a residual coercive force Hr obtained by applying a pulse magnetic field having a pulse width of 0.76 ms in an in-plane direction of the magnetic recording medium, and the Hr (45°) is a residual coercive force Hr obtained by setting an angle of the magnetic recording medium in the in-plane direction to 0°, setting an angle of the magnetic recording medium in a perpendicular direction to 90°, and making a pulse magnetic field having a pulse width of 0.76 ms be incident from a direction inclined by 45° toward the perpendicular direction from the in-plane direction and applying the pulse magnetic field to the magnetic recording medium.
