    A mechanism to pin skyrmions in chiral magnets

    Full text link
    We propose a mechanism to pin skyrmions in chiral magnets by introducing local maximum of magnetic exchange strength, which can be realized in chiral magnetic thin films by engineering the local density of itinerate electrons. Thus we find a way to artificially control the position of a single skyrmion in chiral magnetic thin films. The stationary properties and the dynamical pinning and depinning processes of an isolated skyrmion around a pinning center are studied. We do a series of simulations to show that the critical current to depin a skyrmion has linearly dependence on the pinning strength. We also estimate the critical current to have order of magnitude 10^{7}\sim10^{8}A/m^{2}

    Noise in Genotype Selection Model

    Full text link
    We study the steady state properties of a genotype selection model in presence of correlated Gaussian white noise. The effect of the noise on the genotype selection model is discussed. It is found that correlated noise can break the balance of gene selection and induce the phase transition which can makes us select one type gene haploid from a gene group.Comment: 8 pages, 4 figure
