Abstract:
Quantized spin-wave eigenmodes in single, 16 nm thick and 0.75 to 4 mum wide square permalloy islands with a fourfold closure domain structure have been investigated by microfocus Brillouin light scattering spectroscopy and time resolved scanning magneto-optical Kerr microscopy. Up to six eigenmodes were detected and classified. The main direction of the spin-wave quantization in the domains was found to be perpendicular to the local static magnetization. An additional less pronounced quantization along the direction parallel to the static magnetization was also observed.

Magnetic Field due to Moving Charges
Consider a point charge moving with a constant velocity. Like the electric field, the magnetic field at any point is directly proportional to the magnitude of the charge and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between the source point and the field point. However, unlike the electric field, the magnetic field is always perpendicular to the plane containing the line...
