Abstract
A magnetic head in which two sides, which are defined as viewed in a core width direction, of first, second, and third end surfaces of a magnetic recording head extend along a longitudinal direction of recording tracks, so that it is possible to reduce spreading of leakage magnetic field extending from the two sides of the magnetic recording head in the core width direction between an upper core layer and a lower core layer protrusion through a gap layer. If the leakage magnetic field extending from both sides of the gap layer is reduced, it is possible to prevent the formation of an erased area beyond a multiple recording area. It is possible to maintain the S/N ratio of a reproduction signal at a proper value when reading out magnetic information from a magnetic tape.
