Gyrotropic linear and nonlinear motions of a magnetic vortex in soft magnetic nanodots
The authors investigated the gyrotropic linear and nonlinear motions of a magnetic vortex in soft magnetic cylindrical nanodots under in-plane oscillating magnetic fields of different frequencies and amplitudes, by employing both micromagnetic simulations and the numerical solutions of Thiele's equation of motion [Phys. Rev. Lett. 30, 230 (1973)]. Not only noncircular elliptical vortex-core orbital trajectories in the linear regime but also complex trajectories including stadiumlike shape in the nonlinear regime were observed from the micromagnetic simulations and were in excellent agreement with the numerical solutions of the analytical equations of motion. It was verified that the numerical solutions of Thiele's equation are promisingly applicable in order to predict and describe well such complex vortex gyrotropic linear and nonlinear motions in both the initial transient and later steady states. These results enrich the fundamental understanding of the linear and nonlinear motions of vortices in confined magnetic elements in response to oscillating driving forces.open352
Cooper-Pair Spin Current in a Strontium Ruthenate Heterostructure
It has been recognized that the condensation of spin-triplet Cooper pairs
requires not only the broken gauge symmetry but also the spin ordering as well.
One consequence of this is the possibility of the Cooper-pair spin current
analogous to the magnon spin current in magnetic insulators, the analogy also
extending to the existence of the Gilbert damping of the collective
spin-triplet dynamics. The recently fabricated heterostructure of the thin film
of the itinerant ferromagnet SrRuO3 on the bulk Sr2RuO4, the best-known
candidate material for the spin-triplet superconductor, offers a promising
platform for generating such spin current. We will show how such
heterostructure allows us to not only realize the long-range spin valve but
also electrically drive the collective spin mode of the spin-triplet order
parameter. Our proposal represents both a new realization of the spin
superfluidity and a transport signature of the spin-triplet superconductivity.Comment: 5 pages, 3 figure
Magnon topology and thermal Hall effect in trimerized triangular lattice antiferromagnet
The non-trivial magnon band topology and its consequent responses have been
extensively studied in two-dimensional magnetisms. However, the triangular
lattice antiferromagnet (TLAF), the best-known frustrated two-dimensional
magnet, has received less attention than the closely related Kagome system,
because of the spin-chirality cancellation in the umbrella ground state of the
undistorted TLAF. In this work, we study the band topology and the thermal Hall
effect (THE) of the TLAF with (anti-)trimerization distortion under the
external perpendicular magnetic field using the linearized spin wave theory. We
show that the spin-chirality cancellation is removed in such case, giving rise
to the non-trivial magnon band topology and the finite THE. Moreover, the
magnon bands exhibit band topology transitions tuned by the magnetic field. We
demonstrate that such transitions are accompanied by the logarithmic divergence
of the first derivative of the thermal Hall conductivity. Finally, we examine
the above consequences by calculating the THE in the hexagonal manganite
YMnO, well known to have anti-trimerization.Comment: 6 + 7 pages, 3 + 5 figures, 0 + 1 table; Journal reference adde
An interface-proximity model for switchable interfacial uncompensated antiferromagnetic spins and their role in exchange bias
We propose an interface-proximity model that allows us to solve a longstanding puzzle regarding large discrepancies between the experimentally observed and theoretically estimated values of exchange-bias field Heb in coupled ferromagneticantiferromagnetic (FAF) metallic films. In this proposed model, switchable uncompensated (UC) AF spins in contact with an F layer are taken into account as an additionally inserting layer that is chemically or magnetically distinguishable from each of the nominal AF and F layers. Reductions in Heb, enhancements in coercivity, and other exchange-bias behaviors typically observed in experiments are very well reproduced from this model. The switchable interfacial UC region with a sizable thickness, heretofore ignored, plays a crucial role in the exchange bias phenomenon.open6
Atomic-scale depth selectivity of soft x-ray resonant Kerr effect
A study was performed to demonstrate that soft x-ray Kerr rotation, ??K, versus incident grazing angle, ??, and energy, hv, measurements provide an extremely large depth selectivity on the atomic scales even in an ultrathin single layer, simply by choosing appropriate ?? and hv around the resonant regions. Both the experimental and simulation results of ?? vs ??K measurements were considered for depth-varying magnetization reversals in a 3.5-nm-thick Co layer of NiFe/FeMn/Co/Pd films.open161
The Historical Precedent for the East Sea (Sea of Japan): An Invisible Placenaming War since 1992
Today my presentation have brought very practical information which might be helpful for classroom education and have explained the nature of the invisible naming war between Korea and Japan. Even though the geographical themes have been shifted from one to another over the history of geography since the times of Greek, there is one theme, toponymy which has remained an important subject and a basic element for the study of regional geography. It is the well-known fact that it has been taken over many centuries in order to correct a monumental collection of incorrect place names in Ptolemy's comprehensive atlas. For geography teachers and researchers, it is essential to understand the nature of place nomenclature. In addition to geographers needs and interests, recently geographical place names have become much more important. All people need place names to communicate with each other and place names become key elements in socio-economic activities such as cartography, census and relief operations, postal services, trade, and the like. Also, when the names of certain places, especially containing or sharing historical meaning and national feelings such as a part of national anthem and ritual objective as God of the sea, are not properly used, a controversy is flamed in national and international circles.97๋

Soft x-ray resonant magneto-optical Kerr effect as a depth-sensitive probe of magnetic heterogeneity: Its application to resolve helical spin structures using linear p polarization
We have calculated the soft x-ray resonant Kerr intensities as a function of the incident grazing angle of linearly p-polarized waves from the model spin structures, where the chirality (handedness) of the spin spirals (twist in depth) in a magnetic layer and the periodicity of a unit spiral are designed to vary. Variations in the chirality and the periodicity lead to noticeable changes in the Kerr intensity versus the grazing angle, which is due not only to a large sensitivity of the Kerr intensity of the linear p polarization to both the magnitude and direction of the transverse components of magnetizations, but also to a large dependence of the depth sensitivity on the grazing angle at the resonance regions. The measurement and analysis of the specular Kerr intensity are relatively straightforward in determining the inhomogeneous spin structures in depth, compared to those of the Kerr rotation and ellipticity. This is proven to be a convenient and useful probe to determine the handedness of spin spiral structures, as well as to resolve the detailed magnetic heterostructures in depth in ultrathin-layered films.open4
