We study azimuthal spin-wave (SW) excitations in a circular ferromagnetic nanodot in different inhomogeneous, topologically non-trivial magnetization states, specifically, vortex, Bloch-type skyrmion and Neel-type skyrmion states. Continuous mapping of the SW spectrum between these states is realized with gradual change of the out-of-plane magnetic anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya exchange interaction (DMI). Our study shows lifting of the SW frequencies degeneracy and change in systematics of the frequency levels. The change is induced by a geometrical Berry phase, that is present for the dot-edge localized SWs in a vortex state and vanishes in skyrmion states. Furthermore, channeling of the azimuthal SWs localized at the skyrmion edge is present and induces large frequency splitting. This is attributed to DMI induced nonreciprocity, while coupling of the breathing and gyrotropic modes is related to soliton motion. Finally, an efficient coupling of the dynamic magnetization in the skyrmion state to uniform magnetic field in nanodots with non-circular symmetry is shown.

A general theory of edge spin wave excitations in semi-infinite and finite periodic arrays of magnetic nanodots existing in a spatially uniform magnetization ground state is developed. The theory is formulated using a formalism of multi-vectors of ma gnetization dynamics, which allows one to study edge excitations in arrays having arbitrary complex primitive cells and lattice geometry. The developed formalism can describe edge excitations localized both at the physical edges of the array and at the internal domain walls separating array regions existing in different static magnetization states. Using a perturbation theory in the framework of the developed formalism it is possible to calculate damping of edge modes and their excitation by external variable magnetic fields. The theory is illustrated on the following practically important examples: (i) calculation of the FMR absorption in a finite nanodot array having the shape of a right triangle, (ii) calculation of nonreciprocal spin wave spectra of edge modes, including modes at the physical edges of an array and modes at the domain walls inside an array, (iii) study of the influence of the domain wall modes on the FMR spectrum of an array existing in a non-ideal chessboard antiferromagnetic ground state.
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 consider a type-II superconducting thin film in contact with a Neel skyrmion. The skyrmion induces spontaneous currents in the superconducting layer, which under the right condition generate a superconducting vortex in the absence of an external m agnetic field. We compute the magnetic field and current distributions in the superconducting layer in the presence of Neel skyrmion.

Magnetic skyrmions are particle-like chiral spin textures found in a magnetic film with out-of-planeanisotropy and are considered to be potential candidates as information carriers in next generationdata storage devices. Despite intense research into the nature of skyrmions and their dynamic prop-erties, there are several key challenges that still need to be addressed. In particular, the outstandingissues are the reproducible generation, stabilization and confinement of skyrmions at room tempera-ture. Here, we present a method for the capture of nanometer sized magnetic skyrmions in an arrayof magnetic topological defects in the form of an antidot lattice. With micromagnetic simulations,we elucidate the skyrmion formation in the antidot lattice and show that the capture is dependenton the antidot lattice parameters. This behavior is confirmed with scanning transmission x-ray mi-croscopy measurements. This demonstration that a magnetic antidot lattice can be implemented asa host to capture skyrmions provides a new platform for experimental investigations of skyrmionsand skyrmion based devices.
We use Monte Carlo simulation to study the vortex nucleation on magnetic nanodots at low temperature. In our simulations, we have considered a simple microscopic two-dimensional anisotropic Heisenberg model with term to describe the anisotropy due to the presence of the nanodot edge. We have considered the thickness of the edge, which was not considered in previous works, introducing a term that controls the energy associated to the edge. Our results clearly show that the thickness of the edge has a considerable influence in the vortex nucleation on magnetic nanodots. We have obtained the hysteresis curve for several values of the surface anisotropy and skin depth parameter ($xi$). The results are in excellent agreement with experimental data.
