A magnetic vortex occurs as an equilibrium configuration in thin ferromagnetic platelets of micron and sub-micron size and is characterised by an in-plane curling magnetisation. At the centre, a magnetic singularity is avoided by an out-of-plane magnetisation core. This core has a gyrotropic excitation mode, which corresponds to a circular motion of the vortex around its equilibrium position, where the rotation sense is determined by the direction of the vortex core magnetisation, its polarisation. Unlike linear fields or spin polarised currents, which excite both polarisation states, an in-plane rotating field can selectively excite one of the polarisation states. Here we report the observation of vortex dynamics in response to rotating magnetic fields, imaged with time-resolved scanning X-ray microscopy. We demonstrate that the rotating field only excites the gyrotropic mode if the rotation sense of the field coincides with the vortex gyration sense and that such a field can selectively reverse the vortex polarisation.

In a ferromagnetic nanodisk, the magnetization tends to swirl around in the plane of the disk and can point either up or down at the center of this magnetic vortex. This binary state can be useful for information storage. It is demonstrated that a si
ngle nanosecond current pulse can switch the core polarity. This method also provides the precise control of the core direction, which constitutes fundamental technology for realizing a vortex core memory.
Magnetic platelets with a vortex configuration are attracting considerable attention. The discovery that excitation with small in-plane magnetic fields or spin polarised currents can switch the polarisation of the vortex core did not only open the po
ssibility of using such systems in magnetic memories, but also initiated the fundamental investigation of the core switching mechanism itself. Micromagnetic models predict that the switching is mediated by a vortex-antivortex pair, nucleated in a dynamically induced vortex core deformation. In the same theoretical framework, a critical core velocity is predicted, above which switching occurs. Although these models are extensively studied and generally accepted, experimental support has been lacking until now. In this work, we have used high-resolution time-resolved X-ray microscopy to study the detailed dynamics in vortex structures. We could reveal the dynamic vortex core deformation preceding the core switching. Also, the threshold velocity could be measured, giving quantitative comparison with micromagnetic models.
We observe interlaced square vortex lattices in rotating two-component dilute-gas Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC). After preparing a hexagonal vortex lattice in a single-component BEC in an internal state $|1>$ of $^{87}$Rb atoms, we coherently trans
fer a fraction of the superfluid to a different internal state $|2>$. The subsequent evolution of this pseudo-spin-1/2 superfluid towards a state of offset square lattices involves an intriguing interplay of phase-separation and -mixing dynamics, both macroscopically and on the length scale of the vortex cores, and a stage of vortex turbulence. Stability of the square lattice structure is confirmed via the application of shear perturbations, after which the structure relaxes back to the square configuration. We use an interference technique to show the spatial offset between the two vortex lattices. Vortex cores in either component are filled by fluid of the other component, such that the spin-1/2 order parameter forms a Skyrmion lattice.
We numerically simulate vortex nucleation in a Bose-Einstein Condensate (BEC) subject to an effective magnetic field. The effective magnetic field is generated from the interplay between light with a non-trivial phase structure and the BEC, and can b
e shaped and controlled by appropriate modifications to the phase and intensity of the light. We demonstrate that the nucleation of vortices is seeded by instabilities in surface excitations which are coupled to by an asymmetric trapping potential (similar to the case of condensates subject to mechanical rotation) and show that this picture also holds when the applied effective magnetic field is not homogeneous. The eventual configuration of vortices in the cloud depends on the geometry of the applied field.
In a rotating two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC), the traditional triangular vortex lattice can be replaced by a rectangular vortex lattice or even a structure characterized in terms of vortex sheets, depending on the interspecies interacti
ons. We study the dynamics of this system by analyzing the Bogoliubov excitation spectrum. Excitations familiar to BEC vortex systems are found such as Tkachenko modes, hydrodynamic modes and surface waves, however, the complex two-component morphology also gives rise to new phenomena including shear flow between vortex sheets.
