The recent development of a micromagnetic simulation methodology - suitable for multiphase magnetic nanocomposites - permits the computation of the magnetic microstructure and of the associated magnetic small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) cross section of these materials. In this review article we summarize results on the micromagnetic simulation of magnetic SANS from two-phase nanocomposites. The decisive advantage of this approach resides in the possibility to srutinize the individual magnetization Fourier contributions to the total magnetic SANS cross section, rather than their sum, which is generally obtained from experiment. The procedure furnishes unique and fundamental information regarding magnetic neutron scattering from nanomagnets.
