By combining Brillouin Light Scattering and micromagnetic simulations we studied the spin-wave dynamics of a Co/Pd thin film multilayer, features a stripe domain structure at remanence. The periodic up and down domains are separated by cork-screw type domain walls. The existence of these domains causes a scattering of the otherwise bulk and surface spin-wave modes, which form mode families, similar to a one dimensional magnonic crystal. The dispersion relation and mode profiles of spin waves are measured for transferred wave vector parallel and perpendicular to the domain axis.
