Stability of the vortex matter -- magnetic flux lines penetrating into the material -- in type-II superconductor films is crucially important for their application. If some vortices get detached from pinning centres, the energy dissipated…
Transfer of angular momentum from a spin-polarized current to a ferromagnet provides an efficient means to control the dynamics of nanomagnets. A peculiar consequence of this spin-torque, the ability to induce persistent oscillations of a…

Spin-polarized electrical transport is investigated in $ Al_{2}O_{3}/Ni_{80}Fe_{20}/Al_{2}O_{3}$ thin films for permalloy thickness between 6 and 20nm. The degree of spin-polarization of the current flowing in the plane of the film is…

The Ginzburg-Landau equations are solved for ideally periodic vortex lattices in superconducting films of arbitrary thickness in a perpendicular magnetic field. The order parameter, current density, magnetic moment, and the 3-dimensional…
In this paper we show that the vortex states can be created not only in magnetically soft "small" (with the dipolar and exchange energy competition) cylindrical dots, but also in magnetically saturated "big" (when the exchange is neglected)…
The orientation and deformation of moving vortex lattices in the flux-flow state have been investigated in amorphous superconducting NbGe thin films. Employing a mode-locking technique, we detect how moving lattices deform and their…
We demonstrate a current-controlled, dynamic magnonic crystal. It consists of a ferrite film whose internal magnetic field exhibits a periodic, cosine-like variation. The field modulation is created by a direct current flowing through an…

Vortices confined to superconducting easy flow channels with periodic constrictions exhibit reversible oscillations in the critical current at which vortices begin moving as the external magnetic field is varied. This commensurability…
