Abstract:
We developed an analytical model for the magnetization reversal via vortex nucleation and annihilation in double-layer ferromagnetic/antiferromagnetic cylindrical dots. The coupling of the ferromagnet to the antiferromagnet is modeled by means of an interfacial exchange field. The nonuniformity of the magnetization reversal mode perpendicular to the layers is explicitly included and results in a tilted vortex core (tilted Bloch line). The vortex core tilt results in an asymmetry of the nucleation and annihilation fields, which are calculated as a function of the dot geometry.

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...
Diamagnetism
Diamagnetism was discovered by Anton Brugmans in 1778 when he observed that bismuth gets repelled by magnetic fields, thus theorizing that diamagnets get repelled by magnets.
