Zeeman energy

By ignoring the discrete lattice, equation 2.11 becomes (Aharoni, 2000):
$\displaystyle \mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{Ze}}$ $\displaystyle =$ $\displaystyle -\mu_0 \int_V \ensuremath{\mathbf{M}}(\ensuremath{\mathbf{r}})\cdot\ensuremath{\mathbf{H}}(\ensuremath{\mathbf{r}}) \mathrm{d}^3r$ (2.28)

$ \mathcal{E}_{\mathrm{Ze}}$The Zeeman energy of a system
