We study the domain wall motion in a disordered weak ferromagnet, induced by injecting a spin current from a strong ferromagnet. Starting from the spin diffusion equation describing the spin accumulation in the weak ferromagnet, we calculate the force and torque acting on the domain wall. We also study the ensuing domain wall dynamics, and suggest a possible measurement method for detecting the domain wall motion via measuring the additional resistance.

We theoretically study domain wall motion induced by an electric field in the quantum anomalous Hall states on a two-dimensional Kagome lattice with ferromagnetic order and spin-orbit coupling. We show that an electric charge is accumulated near the domain wall which indicates that the electric field drives both the accumulated charge and the domain wall with small energy dissipation. Using the linear response theory we compute the non-equilibrium spin density which exerts a non-adiabatic spin transfer torque on textures of the local magnetization. This torque emerges even when the bulk is insulating and does not require the longitudinal electric current. Finally, we estimate the velocity of domain wall motion in this system, which is faster than that in conventional metals.
We theoretically study a ferrimagnetic domain-wall motion driven by a rotating magnetic field. We find that, depending on the magnitude and the frequency of the rotating field, the dynamics of a ferrimagnetic domain wall can be classified into two regimes. First, when the frequency is lower than a certain critical frequency set by the field magnitude, there is a stationary solution for the domain-wall dynamics, where a domain-wall in-plane magnetization rotates in-phase with the external field. The field-induced precession of the domain wall gives rise to the translational motion of the domain wall via the gyrotropic coupling between the domain-wall angle and position. In this so-called phase-locking regime, a domain-wall velocity increases as the frequency increases. Second, when the frequency exceeds the critical frequency, a domain-wall angle precession is not synchronous with the applied field. In this phase-unlocking regime, a domain wall velocity decreases as the frequency increases. Moreover, the direction of the domain-wall motion is found to be reversed across the angular compensation point where the net spin density of the ferrimagnet changes its sign. Our work suggests that the dynamics of magnetic solitons under time-varying biases may serve as platform to study critical phenomena.
We report on current induced domain wall propagation in a patterned GaMnAs microwire with perpendicular magnetization. An unexpected slowing down of the propagation velocity has been found when the moving domain wall extends over only half of the width of the wire. This slowing down is related to the elongation of a longitudinal wall along the axis of the wire. By using an energy balance argument, the expected theoretical dependence of the velocity change has been calculated and compared with the experimental results. According to this, the energy associated to the longitudinal domain wall should change when a current passes through the wire. These results provide possible evidence of transverse spin diffusion along a longitudinal domain wall.
A space-time dependent node separation in Weyl semimetals acts as an axial vector field. Coupled with domain wall motion in magnetic Weyl semimetals, this induces axial electric and magnetic fields localized at the domain wall. We show how these fields can activate the axial (chiral) anomaly and provide a direct experimental signature of it. Specifically, a domain wall provides a spatially dependent Weyl node separation and an axial magnetic field $textbf{B}_5$, and domain wall movement, driven by an external magnetic field, gives the Weyl node separation a time dependence, inducing an axial electric field $textbf{E}_5$. At magnetic fields beyond the Walker breakdown, $textbf{E}_5cdottextbf{B}_5$ becomes nonzero and activates the axial anomaly that induces a finite axial charge density -- imbalance in the number of left- and right-handed fermions -- moving with the domain wall. This axial density, in turn, produces, via the chiral magnetic effect, an oscillating current flowing along the domain wall plane, resulting in a characteristic radiation of electromagnetic waves emanating from the domain wall. A detection of this radiation would constitute a direct measurement of the axial anomaly induced by axial electromagnetic fields.
In easy-plane ferromagnets, all magnetic dynamics are restricted in a specific plane, and the domain wall becomes massive instead of gyroscopic. Here we show that the interaction between domain wall and spin wave packet in easy-plane ferromagnets takes analogy to two massive particles colliding via attraction. Due to mutual attraction, the penetration of spin wave packet leads to backward displacement of the domain wall, and further the penetration of continuous spin wave leads to constant velocity of domain wall. The underlying temporary exchange of momentum, instead of permanent transfer of linear and angular momenta, provides a new paradigm in magnonically driving domain wall.
