Magnetic skyrmions are particle-like nanometre-sized spin textures of topological origin
found in several magnetic materials, and are characterized by a long lifetime. Skyrmions …

Access to clean, affordable and reliable energy has been a cornerstone of the world's
increasing prosperity and economic growth since the beginning of the industrial revolution …

Symmetry breaking together with strong spin–orbit interaction gives rise to many exciting
phenomena within condensed matter physics. A recent example is the existence of chiral …

Domains in ferroelectrics were considered to be well understood by the middle of the last
century: They were generally rectilinear, and their walls were Ising-like. Their simplicity …

Skyrmions represent topologically stable field configurations with particle-like properties. We
used neutron scattering to observe the spontaneous formation of a two-dimensional lattice of …

Frustration, the presence of competing interactions, is ubiquitous in the physical sciences
and is a source of degeneracy and disorder, which in turn gives rise to new and interesting …

Students and researchers looking for a comprehensive textbook on magnetism, magnetic
