      abstract     = {Training in exchange bias systems plays an essential role
                      in understanding the very origin of the biasing effect. The
                      nonequilibrium arrangement of antiferromagnetic (AF) spins
                      at the antiferromagnetic-ferromagnetic interface, related to
                      the AF uniaxial anisotropy, plays a crucial role during the
                      initial training. Our system of choice, IrMn/CoFe, possesses
                      softer uniaxial anisotropy compared to other AF systems
                      (e.g., CoO), thereby reducing the energy penalty due to
                      nonequilibrium spins. Different methods have been applied to
                      initialize or modify the unidirectional anisotropy. We apply
                      an in-plane field (a) during field growth, (b) during field
                      cooling below its blocking temperature, and (c) in an
                      in-plane magnetic field during ion irradiation, along and
                      opposite the field applied during field growth.
                      Magnetization reversal mechanisms were investigated during
                      the first two field cycles to identify the role of each
                      method on the training. A detailed analysis of polarized
                      neutron scattering using the distorted wave Born
                      approximation reveals a simultaneous process of domain
                      nucleation and coherent rotation for magnetization
                      reversal.},
