Abstract
A measurement method of a magnetic field gradient of a recording magnetic field generated by a magnetic head in a recording medium includes a step of locally heating the recording medium in a nonmagnetic field state where a magnetic field is not applied to the recording medium at all and measuring a temperature gradient of the recording medium in the nonmagnetic field state, a step of locally heating the recording medium in a recording magnetic field application state where the recording magnetic field is applied to the recording medium and measuring a temperature gradient of the recording medium in the recording magnetic field application state, and a step of calculating a magnetic field gradient of the recording magnetic field based on the temperature gradient of the recording medium in the nonmagnetic field state and the temperature gradient of the recording medium in the recording magnetic field application state.
