Magnetostatic Spin Waves

Abstract

In general, Maxwell's equations require that a wave of magnetic field be accompanied by a wave of electric field, and vice versa. In magnetic media it is possible to have waves of magnetization with negligible electric field. We discuss an example of this based on ferromagnetic spin waves.
