Magnetic disks or dots of soft magnetic material of sub-micron dimensions may have as the lowest energy magnetic configuration a single-domain structure, with magnetization either perpendicular of parallel to the plane, or else may form magnetic vortices. The properties of these vortices may be used to encode data bits, in magnetic memory applications. In the present work the OOMMF code was used to compute by micromagnetic simulation the energy and the magnetization of circular and elliptical nanodots of permalloy. For the elliptical magnetic dots the analysis was made for variable thickness and length of major axis, keeping a 2:1 axis ratio. From the simulations, a phase diagram was constructed, where the ground state configurations of the nanodots are represented in a diagram of nanodot height versus length of the major axis $2a$ of the ellipse. The phase diagram obtained includes regions with one and two vortices; it is similar, but more complex than that derived using a numerical scaling approach, since it includes configurations with lateral vortices. These diagrams are useful as guides for the choice of dimensions of elliptical nanodots for practical applications.

Magnetic skyrmions are nanometric spin textures of outstanding potential for spintronic applications due to unique features governed by their non-trivial topology. It is well known that skyrmions of definite chirality are stabilized by the Dzyaloshin
skii-Moriya exchange interaction (DMI) in bulk non-centrosimmetric materials or ultrathin films with strong spin-orbit coupling in the interface. In this work, we report on the detection of magnetic hedgehog-skyrmions at room temperature in confined systems with neither DMI nor perpendicular magnetic anisotropy. We show that soft magnetic (permalloy) nanodots are able to host non- chiral hedgehog skyrmions that can be further stabilized by the magnetic field arising from the Magnetic Force Microscopy probe. Analytical calculations and micromagnetic simulations confirmed the existence of metastable Neel skyrmions in permalloy nanodots even without external stimuli in a certain size range. Our work implies the existence of a new degree of freedom to create and manipulate skyrmions in soft nanodots. The stabilization of skyrmions in soft magnetic materials opens a possibility to study the skymion magnetization dynamics otherwise limited due to the large damping constant coming from the high spin-orbit coupling in materials with high magnetic anisotropy.
We present the fabrication and exploration of arrays of nanodots of $SrRuO_3$ with dot sizes between 500 nm and 15 nm. Down to the smallest dot size explored, the samples were found to be magnetic with a maximum of the Curie temperature $T_C$ achieve
d by dots of 30 nm diameter. This peak in $T_C$ is associated with a dot-size-induced relief of the epitaxial strain, as evidenced by scanning transmission electron microscopy.
Studies of Majorana bound states in semiconducting nanowires frequently neglect the orbital effect of magnetic field. Systematically studying its role leads us to several conclusions for designing Majoranas in this system. Specifically, we show that
for experimentally relevant parameter values orbital effect of magnetic field has a stronger impact on the dispersion relation than the Zeeman effect. While Majoranas do not require a presence of only one dispersion subband, we observe that the size of the Majoranas becomes unpractically large, and the band gap unpractically small when more than one subband is filled. Since the orbital effect of magnetic field breaks several symmetries of the Hamiltonian, it leads to the appearance of large regions in parameter space with no band gap whenever the magnetic field is not aligned with the wire axis. The reflection symmetry of the Hamiltonian with respect to the plane perpendicular to the wire axis guarantees that the wire stays gapped in the topologically nontrivial region as long as the field is aligned with the wire.
In this paper we apply an extended Landau-Lifschitz equation, as introduced by Bav{n}as et al. for the simulation of heat-assisted magnetic recording. This equation has similarities with the Landau-Lifshitz-Bloch equation. The Bav{n}as equation is su
pposed to be used in a continuum setting with sub-grain discretization by the finite-element method. Thus, local geometric features and nonuniform magnetic states during switching are taken into account. We implement the Bav{n}as model and test its capability for predicting the recording performance in a realistic recording scenario. By performing recording simulations on 100 media slabs with randomized granular structure and consecutive read back calculation, the write position shift and transition jitter for bit lengths of 10nm, 12nm, and 20nm are calculated.
We study the effect of perpendicular single-ion anisotropy, $-As_{text{z}}^2$, on the ground-state structure and finite-temperature properties of a two-dimensional magnetic nanodot in presence of a dipolar interaction of strength $D$. By a simulated
annealing Monte Carlo method, we show that in the ground state a vortex core perpendicular to the nanodot plane emerges already in the range of moderate anisotropy values above a certain threshold level. In the giant-anisotropy regime the vortex structure is superseded by a stripe domain structure with stripes of alternate domains perpendicular to the surface of the sample. We have also observed an intermediate stage between the vortex and stripe structures, with satellite regions of tilted nonzero perpendicular magnetization around the core. At finite temperatures, at small $A$, we show by Monte Carlo simulations that there is a transition from the the in-plane vortex phase to the disordered phase characterized by a peak in the specific heat and the vanishing vortex order parameter. At stronger $A$, we observe a discontinuous transition with a large latent heat from the in-plane vortex phase to perpendicular stripe ordering phase before a total disordering at higher temperatures. In the regime of perpendicular stripe domains, namely with giant $A$, there is no phase transition at finite $T$: the stripe domains are progressively disordered with increasing $T$. Finite-size effects are shown and discussed.
