20. The large aspect ratio (>100) facilitates interpretation of the experimental results, in that the magnetic objects can well be considered as infinitely long cylinders.

25. In Opposition to this, Figure S1 in the Supporting Information shows a clear contrast when only partial deposition of Ni has been performed.

27. This is also in line with the large changes documented in the literature for the temperature-dependent magnetism of magnetite due to the Verwey transition, whereas nickel remains relatively unaffected: F. Walz, J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 2002, 14, R285.
28. In a so-called "minor loop," a magnetization isotherm is measured without going to negative saturation.
