| 1. A magnetic recording medium, comprising:
a base member;
an underlayer formed on the base member;
a main recording layer formed on the underlayer, the main recording layer having perpendicular magnetic anisotropy with an
anisotropic magnetic field of Hk1 and an inclination of a reversal part of a magnetization curve of a1; and
a writing assist layer formed on or under the main recording layer in contact with the main recording layer, the writing assist
layer having an anisotropic magnetic field of Hk2 and an inclination of a reversal part of a magnetization curve of a2,
wherein the anisotropic magnetic fields Hk1 and Hk2 and the inclinations a1 and a2 satisfy Hk1>Hk2 and a2>a1.
