A novel description of hysteresis phenomenon is presented. The examined description emphasizes the roles of bistability and quantum phenomena as processes responsible for hysteresis loop formation in magnetic materials. Major and symmetric minor hysteresis loops are modelled in chosen soft magnetic materials using the Harrison model. A reasonable agreement between theory and experiment is achieved.
