Skyrmions, in which electron spins inside a magnet are arranged like vortices, are a key structure in next-generation spintronics technology. KAIST researchers have shown that skyrmions can form using ...

Despite a warming climate, bone-chilling winter cold can grip parts of the U.S. In a study appearing in Science Advances, researchers found that two specific patterns in the polar vortex, a swirling ...

This appendix introduces the study of vortex matter and describes some of the leading avenues of research. The experimental exploration of vortex matter, which is one of the many topics uncovered by ...
