If spin liquids have been famously defined by what they are not, i.e. ordered, the past years have seen the frontier between order and spin liquid starting to fade, with a growing number of materials whose low-temperature physics cannot be…
We propose a kinetic theory of transport in metals embedded with ferromagnetic nanoclusters, describing the dependence of the form of magnetoresistance on anisotropy characteristics of the ensemble of clusters and the influence of the…
Damping effects form the core of many emerging concepts for high-speed spintronic applications. Important characteristics such as device switching times and magnetic domain-wall velocities depend critically on the damping rate. While the…
Multiferroics exhibit significant potential for low-power spintronic devices due to magnetoelectric coupling. Here, we discuss an emerging class of altermagnetic multiferroics, a system demonstrating distinct advantages including zero net…
We consider all magnetic monopoles that could have settled in the Standard Model after descending from a generic microscopic theory. These monopoles have Standard Model quantum numbers, are stable, and we also require that their magnetic…
We study spin and charge diffusion in metallic-ferromagnet/topological-insulator junctions. The coupled diffusion equations are derived perturbatively with respect to the strength of the interlayer tunneling. We calculate spin accumulation…
Ensembles of gold nanoparticles present a magnetic behavior which is at odds with the weakly diamagnetic response of bulk gold. In particular, an unusual ferromagnetic order has been unveiled by several experiments. Here we investigate if…
A \emph{monopole liquid} is a magnetic charge-disordered spin system defined over an Ising pyrochlore lattice, with one single topological charge or \emph{monopole} in each tetrahedron. We define a simple model Hamiltonian for this system…
Dirac demonstrated that the existence of a single magnetic monopole in the universe could explain the discrete nature of electric charge. Magnetic monopoles naturally arise in most grand unified theories. However, the extensive experimental…
In ferromagnet/normal metal heterostructures, spin pumping and spin-transfer torques are two reciprocal processes that occur concomitantly. Their interplay introduces a dynamic feedback effect interconnecting energy dissipation channels of…
Topological semimetals in ferromagnetic materials have attracted enormous attention due to the potential applications in spintronics. Using the first-principles density functional theory together with an effective lattice model, here we…
In this talk, I discuss the formation of magnetic monopoles in a phase transition from the confining SU(2) phase to the Coulomb phase in a hot Georgi-Glashow model. I argue that monopoles are formed from long-wavelength thermal…
We investigate the role of massless magnetic monopoles in the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills Higgs theories. They can appear naturally in the 1/4-BPS dyonic configurations associated with multi-pronged string configurations. Massless…
Spintronic and nanomagnetic devices often derive their functionality from layers of different materials and the interfaces between them. This is especially true for synthetic antiferromagnets - two or more ferromagnetic layers that are…
We describe new solutions of Yang-Mills-Higgs theories consisting of magnetic monopoles in a phase with fully broken gauge symmetry. Rather than spreading out radially, the magnetic field lines form flux tubes. The solution is topologically…
We develop the formalism of the macroscopic monopolization -- that is the monopole moment per unit volume -- in periodic solids, and discuss its relationship to the diagonal magnetoelectric effect. For the series of lithium transition metal…
Using the in-in formalism, we generalize the recently constructed magnetoelastic EFT arXiv:2112.13873 [hep-th] to describe the damping dynamics of ferromagnetic systems at long wavelengths. We find that the standard Gilbert damping term…
Magnetic monopoles may be produced by the Schwinger effect in the strong magnetic fields of peripheral heavy-ion collisions. We review the form of the electromagnetic fields in such collisions and calculate from first principles the cross…

Over the last two decades, the new branch of spintronics, i.e., semiconductor spintronics, has gained more attention because it integrates the characteristics of conventional semiconductors, such as optical bandgap and charge carriers,…
