Dynamics of Topological Magnetic Solitons gives a theoretical and experimental review of the dynamics of high-speed domain walls and Bloch lines. After the introduction of magnetic solitons, experimental methods for the observation of the dynamics of domain walls are presented. Further chapters discuss main features of the stimulated motion of domain walls, their magnetoelastic interaction, stability and relaxation. Finally, the dynamics of domain walls in weak ferromagnets with more than one dimension is treated. The last chapter presents the dynamics of Bloch lines and their clusters. More than 230 references guide the reader to the literature. Physicists will gain new insights in interesting applications of soliton theory in condensed matter physics. Engineers will find new information on magnetooptical effects for further applications.
This reference book is intended for physicists and engineers who want to become familiar with soliton theory and its applications in condensed matter physics and special magnetoooptical effects; in particular, the dynamics of domain walls and Bloch lines is thoroughly discussed. More than 230 references guide the reader to the literature. As the last monograph on this topic appeared 15 years ago, this monograph fills a real gap.
